Unless things have changed, the diodes are part of the alternator. The voltage regulator is attached to the alternator but the diodes are part of the alternator.


What are the conditions in parallel operation of generator?

the operation of connecting an alternator with other alternator or with common bus-bars is known as synchronizing.Generally alternator used in power system where they are connected in parallel with other alternator.condition for parallel operation of an alternator1. The terminal voltage of incoming alternator must be same as the bus-bars voltage.2. The speed of incoming alternator must be such that its frequency f =pn/120 as the same frequency of the bus-bars.3. The voltage of incoming alternator and the bus-bars voltage are in same phage.


What will happen to frequency of current when voltage is changed using a step up or step down transformer?

Frequency does not change when you use a step-up or step-down transformer. Only current and voltage is changed.


How do you change the voltage regulator on a 1998 Chevy astro van?

The 1998 Chevrolet Astro Van voltage regulator is part of the alternator. The voltage regulator cannot be individually changed. You will need to change the entire alternator.


Where is the voltage regulator located on a 1997 Ford Thunderbird?

The regulator for the 1997 Ford Thunderbird is bolted on the back of the alternator. While the regulator can be changed separately it is more commonly changed along with the alternator.


Why No voltage going to the alternator?

Voltage flows from the alternator not to it. If it is outputting no voltage it is defective.

Why frequence do not change in transformer?

Voltage at secondary coil depends on differentiation of current at primary coil. In case of sinusoidal current, differentiation leads to sinusoid with same frequency, thus frequency does not change.
