What is the difference between an Insulator and a Dielectric?

What is the difference between an Insulator and a Dielectric?
Last Answer : Dielectrics are used to store the electric charges, while insulators are used to block the flow of electric charges. All dielectrics are insulators (they don’t allow the flow of electric charges through them) but all insulators aren’t dielectric because they can’t store charges, unlike dielectrics....

What are the conditions to be fulfilled by for a dc shunt generator to build back emf?
Last Answer : The generator should have residual flux, the field winding should be connected in such a manner that the flux setup by field in same direction as residual flux, the field resistance should be less than critical field resistance, load circuit resistance should be above critical resistance. ...
