In an alternator, a regulator controls the output voltage by adjusting the field current supplied to the rotor. It ensures that the voltage remains stable and within specified limits, preventing overcharging or damage to the electrical system. The regulator continuously monitors the system's voltage and makes real-time adjustments to maintain optimal performance and efficiency.
