Check for continuity between

would indicate a short

the rotor.

TESTING

THE

DIODES

With

the

diodes removed, measure the resistance

(as

shown) using a multitester (with a diode testing capability).

If

the

meter

measures resistance in one direction,

it

should

indicate infinity

in

the

TESTING

THE

EXCITER

WINDINGS

An

AC voltage is

induCed

in these windings by

the

rotating field.

Checking

the residual voltage output

from

this winding

can

determine

the

~ondition

of

the

RESIDUAL

Single

Model

~

VAC

from

eath

winding

AC

voltage

can

be

measured across the capacitor· while the

generator is

operating.

This

voltlc,oe

may be a5 high

as

400

to

500 volts

AC.

This

voltage buildup is accomplished

as

the exciter

windings

charge the capacitor and the capacitor

discharges back

into

the exciter windings. This AC voltage

reading

is

taken

between

the #60 Hertz connector and the

number

conneCtion

plugged

in~

the capacitor while the

generator

is operating at its rated Hertz (61.5- 62.0). This

fiow

of

saturating

fu

the

exciter windings produces a

phase-imbalance

type

of

field

that effects the

auxi1lary

beneficial

result

that

produces good motor

of
