The alternator (or generator) of a vehicle is the unit that converts the mechanical energy from the drive-belt into electricity. Amperage (amps) are the output level of the alternator. Alternator part number, as well as output amps are specific to each vehicle.

Your question is a little like asking, "How long is a length of string?"! The rated output current of an alternator depends on its rated output power rating and its rated terminal voltage. The rated output power can vary tremendously, according to the physical size of the machine.

How many amps does the elecrical system pull on a 2004 jeep grand Cherokee limited?
It all depends upon what is "ON" at the time. A running vehicle with only the ignition system operating uses about 10-15 amps. Turn on the headlights and it will draw an additional 10 amps. With everything on, it can draw from 30-100 amps. Do you mean "what is the alternator rated at?" Your Jeep alternator would be normally rated at about 100 amps output.

Well, if the alternator is on any type of vehicle that has been made within the last 100 years, it will be the 100 amp alternator. There is no such thing as a 1900 amp alternator for a car. The highest I have seen is about 150 amps, and that is a heavy-duty truck alternator.
