Abstract
A control unit is disclosed for controlling the driving torque of a generator driven by an engine in accordance with the number of cylinders to be operated, thereby to achieve stabilized operation. A voltage regulator is provided for varying the field current through the field coil of the generator so as to regulate the output of the generator. A circuit component including a pair of NC contacts in parallel with a resistor is connected in series between the field coil of the generator and a power source. Depending on the number of cylinders to be operated, the NC contacts are either closed to provide a low resistance path for current to the field coil or are opened to provide a high resistance path through the resistor.
