How the sender unit and gauge operate on alternator?
In an alternator, the sender unit, typically a voltage regulator, monitors the output voltage and current. It signals the gauge, which displays the alternator's performance, indicating whether it is charging properly or if there are issues. The sender unit adjusts the field current to maintain optimal output, ensuring the gauge reflects accurate voltage levels. This feedback loop helps maintain efficient electrical system operation in a vehicle.
