if it is a big power wire ( same size as the battery cable ) then it is the earth wire you should find that the battery has one wire going directly on to the engine or chassis there are different arangements the negative wire could be coming directly to the starter and if this is the case then the wire is just earthing the engine but in a lot of cases the starter is getting its ground from the engine and the engine gets its ground from the battery

Where is the Ground wire on alternator from battery?

There usually isn't one. The vehicle becomes the ground, and since the alternator is physically attached to the engine, the case of the alternator becomes the ground. Note that the battery is also connected to the vehicle chassis, usually at 2 or more points, and that the engine usually has a grounding strap to some solid point on the chassis.

What else can act like an alternator I have a 87 Nissan Sentra and it's acting like the alternator lights going dimm etc. I've had it checked and they told me it's still good. So what else?

Sounds like you may have a bad ground. If you have changed the original battery cable ends, the chassie ground wire may not be attached or may have a bad connection. there should be a wire that attachs to the negative cable and goes to the chassis. sometimes they are bolted to the fender well. Another thing you may want to check is the ground wire from the engine block to the battery or chassis.
