When to use a one wire alternator?

FAQ-Alternators
Powermaster early style Delco alternators will work either way - as a one wire or OEM style. The main difference between a one wire and an OEM is the method used to energize or turn on the alternator. An alternator using the OEM style is turned on with the ignition switch. The one wire design is energized with a special sensing cicuit built into the internal voltage regulator. This circuit senses the rotation of the alternator's rotor.

How can I hook my one-wire alternator up as a three-wire alternator?

FAQ-Alternators
Some Powermaster one wire alternators (i.e., pn/n's 17127, 17294, 37294, 47294, 8002, 58005) can be hooked up as a three wire ...IF the vehicle is equipped with the two spade GM or aftermarket wiring harness. The Powermaster one-wire alternators have a black plug cover on the side of the alternator. This can be removed and the GM or aftermarket two-spade wiring harness can be plugged in for three-wire operation. See your alternator instruction sheet for further details. See similar questions...

How do I hook up a one wire alternator?

FAQ-Alternators
Simply run a charge wire from the battery terminal on the alternator to the positive terminal on the battery. The onw-wire regulator is a self-exciting regulator, meaning that it has sensing ciruitry for alternator rotation. As the alternator starts to spin, this circuitry connects the internal voltage regulator to the battery and turns the alternator on. When the alternator comes to a complete stop, this same circuitry turns the alternator off. See similar questions...

What gauge speaker wire should I use in my system?

Amplifier Frequently Asked Questions
For the best speaker damping and least amount of power loss you will want to use the heaviest gauge that is practical. The length of the speaker wire should be considered when considering wire gauge. The shorter the run, the smaller gauge you can use with minimum power and damping factor loss. The longer the run, the heavier gauge you will need to minimize power and damping factor loss. You will also want to consider the size of power amplifier you are using. See similar questions...

How do I wire the output for unbalanced use?

Technical Support
Since this unit uses a cross-coupled output, it is imperative that pin 3 be grounded to pin 1 and the audio positive connected to pin 2. It is also very important to make sure the unit is earth grounded using a separate wire connected to the chassis ground screw near the red power connector. See Sound System Interconnection for further details. Not having an earth ground connection to the chassis is the number one cause of failure See similar questions...

What size of alternator should I use ... ?

Fequently Asked Questions
This could be considered a follow on from the previous question regarding battery bank size. A good rule of thumb is to choose a battery bank size to alternator size using a ratio of 4:1, e.g. for a battery bank size of 240Ahrs an alternator of 60Amps should be used (minimum). Using a larger alternator will not damage the batteries by over charging on the contrary it means the alternator does not have to work so hard. See similar questions...

What gauge wire should I use?

RCS Faq's page
We suggest using 16 or 18 gauge wire to get power to your layout, depending on its size. For larger layouts run a larger gauge bus wire underneath your benchwork and tap of from that to your track about every 6 or 8 feet. For DZ1000 switch machine, which require very little power, we recomend 22 to 26 gauge stranded preferably with tinned (soldered) ends. This will help the set screw bite into it without splaying out the strands. See similar questions...
