Question

question 12 (0.6 points) during alternator operation, using a dvom at the battery and an inductive amp clamp at the alternator output wire as amperage output increase so does alternator voltage. 1) true 2) false

Explanation:

The voltage of an alternator is regulated by the voltage regulator. As the amperage output increases, the voltage regulator adjusts to maintain a relatively stable voltage (around 13.5 - 14.5 volts in a typical automotive charging system). So, alternator voltage does not increase as amperage output increases.

Answer:

1. False
