What is the normal power generation output of a car alternator?
1 Answers
Car alternator normal output voltage ranges between 13.5-14.5V. Specific details are as follows: Float charge safety voltage: Between 12.6V and 14.5V, this voltage range is also the safe float charge value for 12V batteries. Voltage faults: Both overvoltage and undervoltage indicate malfunctions, and power generation output doesn't differentiate between carburetor and fuel injection systems. Relevant information about car alternators: Alternator: A very important component in vehicles that generates electricity to power all electrical equipment. Classification: Divided into DC generators and AC generators. Since AC generators outperform DC generators in many aspects, DC generators have been phased out. Alternators are generally located at the front of the engine.
