INTRODUCTION
Electricity is one of the most important that science
has given to us, it has so many uses in our daily life.
There are lots of different sources of energy that are
used in the world to generate power or electricity. This
entire source of energy is used primarily to produce
electricity. World runs on a series of electrical
reaction. All of these different sources of energy add
to store electricity power that is then sent out to the
different locations via high powered lines.
SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
The use of electricity is increasing day by day. One
of the problems in the Philippines is the prices from
electricity that goes to the different cities and towns.
Many people in the Philippines must deal with rolling
blackouts and outages. In houses most household
appliances are using between 3000 and 65000 watts. If
your home has a smaller furnace and city water, you can
generally expect that 3000-5000 watts will cover your
needs. If you have a larger furnace and/or well pump,
you will likely need 5000 to 6500 generators.
The researchers considered to use an electric
generator because it can decrease the harmful sources
of energy and it is important because all living things
depend upon on it.
The researchers have observed that some of the
magnets were seldom used. Until today, the shortage of
electricity has become abundant in most parts of the
world that is why the researchers planned to use the
magnet as a motor to generate power that is harmless to
everyone.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
The use of magnets as a motor to generate
electricity was studied by some researchers and
some of the researchers are finding another
recyclable material to create a more useful
generator. A magnet has a property that can produce
electricity through induction of current. The
purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of
the Improvised Electric Generator with the use of
Magnet motor to produce electricity.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
General Objective
This study aims to determine the ability of the direct current
magnet motor as an improvised electric generator to generate
power to light up the bulb.
Specific Objective(s)
1. Does the magnet motor increase the electrical capacity of the
improvised electric generator?
2. Is the magnet motor effective on the improvised electric
generator in terms of :
a) Duration of power outage
b) Voltage
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
Student-they can use the improvised electric
generator by being the source of energy for
gadgets, machines and technological items.
School-the teachers can continue with the
lessons even in the shortage of the electricity.
Filipino Community-having an alternative and
affordable substitute for energy and electricity.
SCOPE AND DELIMITATIONS
This study entitled "Direct Current Magnet Motor as
an Improvised Electric Generator" was conducted at
Naguilian Senior High School-Stand Alone Building
during the School Year 2018-2019.
This study was conducted to produce an improvised
electric generator with the use of magnet as a motor.
This study yearned to identify on how capable the
researchers to improve and lessen used of commercial
electricity that is not renewable and harmful for the
others.
RESEARCH DESIGN
This study was focused on the experimental type of research
to test the effectiveness of the Improvised Electric Generator
using a Direct Current (DC) Magnet Motor. The researchers
sought the assistance of an expert to reinforce the idea on how
to make an electric generator and formulated to become an
improvised electric generator using a direct current magnet
motor.
This experiment includes three (3) tests with 30 trials each.
The three (3) tests were composed of testing the light bulbs
with different watts, 3 watts, 5 watts and 7 watts. And the three
light bulbs were tested, if the improvised solar panel can light
up the bulbs.
WORKING DESIGN
A working design was made with the help of an
expert. Some of the needed materials were bought as
well as scrap like plywood. The unused magnets and
dynamo were collected from a friend. The researchers
identified the specifications for the direct current
magnet motor.
The direct current magnet motor of the improvised
electric generator was placed on its designated spot. A
battery was also connected after the inverter where it
stores the energy from the improvised solar panel.
