Alternator output voltages are typically restricted to around 25 kV to limit their physical size and the centrifugal forces to which they are subjected. In the UK, this voltage is then typically raised to 400 kV for transmission.The voltages to which you are referring to are typical of the voltages used in the UK's high-voltage distribution system. 'Grid' substations typically transform transmission voltages of 132 kV down to 33 kV (or, less commonly, 66 kV), and 'primary' substations then transform distribution voltages of 33 kV down to 11 kV.
Here is a picture of a typical alternator: http://www.avionicswest.com/images/alternatornew.jpg
typical voltages for residence is 110vac/ 127vac/ 200vac/ 220,240vac for single phase type
If the alternator is installed on or intended for a particular vehicle, the voltage would be the battery voltage of the vehicle. Generally this would be 12 V for most modern cars and boats. Aircraft may have 14 or 28 V systems, and there may be other voltages for special applications. If the alternator does not produce its specified voltage, the alternator may be defective, may have defective voltage regulator, or bad rectifier. Other causes may be poor electrical connection between the alternator and battery or the alternator fault bulb may be burned out.
They aren't in all cases. 110 volts is nominal and may range from 110 to 120 in a typical residence.
No, the only way would be if the belt wasn't driving the alternator causing low voltages to the electronic transmission.
Ignition coils can go bad with age. They can also be damaged by a bad alternator putting out improper or unclean voltages.
Connected to the solenoid. It is the single chord connected to the bottom terminal of the solenoid and is connected to the chord coming from the alternator. A blown fusible link will cause typical bad alternator symptoms and not allow the battery to be charged by the alternator.
The typical automotive alternator requires power to function.
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.
Tolerances are about +/- 5 percent. Scroll down to related links and look at "List of countries with mains power_plugs, voltages and frequencies - Wikipedia".
Alternator Output Voltage RangeGenerally, an automotive alternator is considered to be "good" if the output voltage is in the range between 12 1/2 volts and a maximum of 16 volts.Anything below 12 1/2 volts probably will not adequately charge the battery, and voltages above 16 volts can "cook" the water out of the electrolyte, and cause damage to the battery.
