2. Re: alternator (score: 1): Author: MHKitchen@aol.com; Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 11:51:22 EST; The light wire essentially "energizes" the field windings through the light circuit. If the alternator isn't charging, then the light is at ground and +12V applied to the other side lights it up, in; /html/vintage-race/2002-03/msg00093.html (8,487 bytes)
3. Re: alternator (score: 1): Author: Brian Evans <brian@uunet.ca>; Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 12:43:14 -0500; This is exactly the point I'm trying to understand, and get an answer for. Our regional rules (CASC) state that the main cut-off switch must cut off the alternator as well as the battery, and I'm try; /html/vintage-race/2002-03/msg00094.html (8,998 bytes)

I see that some battery cutoff switches say that they are to be used when an alternator is in use. Maybe it is just a second set o; /html/vintage-race/2002-03/msg00096.html (8,116 bytes)

7. Re: alternator (score: 1): Author: JWoesvra@aol.com; Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 15:48:46 EST; I think the best solution is to run the battery GROUND side thru the main cut-off terminals and the IGNITION hot wire thru the auxillary terminals. This requires a 2 circuit switch of course. Jack Wo; /html/vintage-race/2002-03/msg00099.html (7,875 bytes)
