True or False: In a series generator, the output current decreases as the load current increases.

In a series generator, the output current is inherently linked to the load current because they are part of the same circuit. In this setup, increasing the load current actually results in an increase in the output current. This is because the series generator allows the entire current flowing through the load to also flow through the generator. Therefore, when the load increases, the output current must increase, which is opposite to the statement's claim that the output current decreases.

Understanding this concept is crucial for recognizing how series generators operate. They function by producing current that is directly dependent on the connected load; any change in the load results in a corresponding change in the output. In contrast, if you were to consider different configurations or types of generators (like parallel generators), the behavior might differ, but not in a straightforward series generator setup.
