Oh yse, the altinator voltage should read, 13.5 to 14.5 volts.
Otherwise you battery will be squished.
S = Sence, this goes directly to the battery, and is used to measure the
voltage at the battery + terminal. It does not connect to the altinator
"+" conection untill after all the current that is going to be drawn
from that wire is taken, this allows for the voltage drop when you are
taking 30 Amps from a 40Amp wire.
"+" this is the ouput from the three phase rectifire bridge, it is where
all the current goes to (clasic current goes two).
Ign. This goes to the 'ickl bulb on your dash. This is connected to
the ignition circute, and supplys the field coil's with power to prime
them.
The Case this goes to your engin ground, and is where all the current
comes from.
Remember current flows from - to +, not + to -.
