What color wires go to the alternator?
Find the three cables that connect to the alternator terminals. You will see them hanging nearby: One is a red cable, the second black, while the third is usually a striped cable and may be colored green/yellow or blue/brown. The color can vary, but you can identify the cable, as it is thinner than the other two.
How do you wire an alternator directly to a battery?
Make sure that it is bolted securely to the alternator mount. Attach a cable directly from the alternator output post to the positive side of the battery. This allows for full output from the alternator to the battery when heavy electrical demands are placed on the alternator. Wire the alternator controls.
What is the orange wire on alternator?
The orange wire carries the alternator’s output, if it is on the correct alternator terminal. There should be continuity in the positive side of the boat’s circuit back to the engine start battery, which is how the alternator output charges the battery, but that continuity usually is via more than one wire.
What is the i terminal on an alternator?
Let’s take a look at those: S terminal – Senses battery voltage. IG terminal – Ignition switch that turns the voltage regulator on. L terminal – Closes the circuit to the warning lamp.
What wire goes from alternator to battery?
Locate the terminal on the alternator labeled “B”, “Bat” or “Pos.” All alternators have this terminal. The wire that connects to it is red and goes to the battery. It is a heavy duty wire as it has to carry high current.
What are the 4 terminals on an alternator?
IG terminal – Ignition switch that turns the voltage regulator on. L terminal – Closes the circuit to the warning lamp. B terminal – Main alternator output terminal (connected to the battery) F terminal – Full-field bypass for regulator.
How do you direct wire an alternator to a battery?

What is the field wire on a Ford alternator?
A field wire is the wire that supplies voltage to the alternator’s rotating field coil. They could have used permanent magnets, but that would make it more complex to control the output of the alternator stator coils.
How do I wire my alternator straight to the battery?
Make sure that it is bolted securely to the alternator mount. Attach a cable directly from the alternator output post to the positive side of the battery. This allows for full output from the alternator to the battery when heavy electrical demands are placed on the alternator. Wire the alternator controls.
