The capacity of the regulator is measured in Watts (Power) and that is the voltage multiplied by the current.

Where is the voltage regulator on cutlass supreme?

It's inside the alternator, most people just replace the alternator if it isn't charging but you can take the alternator apart if you know how and put in a new voltage regulator for about $15.

how will I know my Voltage regulator is bad. I have replaced the starter and had the battery and alternator checked they are good. My car will start when it is colder outside but as the day gets hotter it will not start.. Can you help


How do you know if your voltage regulator is bad or if it is the stator?

To determine if the issue lies with the voltage regulator or the stator, first check the voltage output from the stator using a multimeter. If the stator is producing the correct AC voltage but the battery isn't charging, the voltage regulator may be faulty. Conversely, if the stator is not generating the required voltage, it is likely the stator that is bad. Additionally, visual inspection for signs of damage or overheating can provide clues about which component may be failing.

Why scr is used in ac or dc voltage regulator?

The only use of an SCR in a powersupply regulator that I know of is a Crowbar protection circuit to force the breaker to pop if the regulation fails and the powersupply output voltage rises too high.


Will a voltage regulator kill a battery?

Two things can happen. 1. the voltage regulator fails so that the alternator doesn't know the battery charge is dropping therefore the battery doesn't get charged. 2. The voltage regulator fails in such a way as to allow the alternator to overcharge the battery which causes the battery to overheat and fail, Sometimes an overcharged battery can explode.


How do you know if the voltage regulator is bad on a 2007 Dodge Durango?

To determine if the voltage regulator on a 2007 Dodge Durango is bad, check for inconsistent voltage readings using a multimeter. If the voltage fluctuates significantly or is consistently below 13.5 volts while the engine is running, the regulator may be faulty. Additionally, look for symptoms like dimming lights, electrical issues, or a warning light on the dashboard, which can also indicate a problem with the voltage regulator. If these signs are present, further testing or replacement may be necessary.


How do you know if voltage regulator is good?

Check voltage at the battery with car running, it should be well over 12 volts, also check alternator output.
