CHARGING
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The charging system consists
of a
generator, regulator/rectifier, and battery. The
AC
current, which
is
gen-
erated by the generator, is converted
by
the regulator/rectifier into
DC
current. The regulator/rectifier is one
unit which has two functions.
The
regulator prevents overcharging
of
the battery
by
grounding the exces-
sive
AC
current.
The
rectifier
changes
the
AC
current, which
is
produced
by
the generator, to the
DC
cur-
rent.
All
of these components work together to maintain
a
correct and constant voltage and to prevent the battery
from overcharging.
