What else can I help you with?
What is the component in the alternator is responsible for direct current for charging the battery?
Diodes and rectifier
What part of an automobile supplies current?
Alternator and battery
What is alternator in motors?
The Alternator is a component that acts like an electrical generator, charging a battery and powering necessary electrical systems. They are usually used in place of generators because they are lighter in weight, simpler to operate, and produce alternating current.
What is an alternator for?
The alternator generates power to run the car and charge the battery. An alternator in a vehicle generates Alternate Current (AC) instead of Direct Current (DC) electricity to power the vehicle.
What does an alternator produce?
An alternator produces direct current that is used to charge up the battery while the car is running.
Do you need a voltage regulator if you have an alternator?
yes to regulate the current before it in to the battery.
What is the purpose of a alternator?
A car alternator generates alternating current, then uses a rectifier to convert the alternating current to direct current, it charges your battery and supplies the current to run all the electrical systems in the car.
How does an alternator keep a cars battery charged?
An alternator has diodes which transform ac voltage to dc voltage so that the battery gets negative and positive current on its poles thus making the battery to be charged.
What is alternator do?
This is an easy answer. The alternator is hooked (through wires blue and black) to the battery. So every time you start an engine the alternator kicks on and charges the battery. That's practically how it works. <><><> To add a bit to the above- an alternator produces an alternating electrical current (unlike a generator, which produces a direct current- DC vs AC) On modern cars, the alternator produces the current used to charge the battery, and operate electrical equipment on the car, such as lights, wipers, radio, etc.

How do you get the alternator to turn over?
The alternator is run by a belt connected to the engine. When the engine is running the alternator is turning. The alternator is what produces the electrical current that charges the battery & powers everything electrical while the engine is running. the battery is mainly to start the engine.
What can cause the alternator cable drawing current from the battery on a 2003 beetle. the alternator has already been changed.?
Disconnect the cable from the alternator and see if that stops the draw. If it does, the alternator may be defective. Otherwise there may be something else drawing current.
