Been "analyzing" a new regulator. Not connected to anything, just photographing it and making some ohm measurements.
F terminal to chassis 57 ohms with internal contact open. That's the wire wound resistor built in. point 2 ohm with internal contact closed.
Gen terminal to chassis 37.8 ohms and stays the same regardless of other contact positions. This seems to be the Field relay winding's resistance.
Bat terminal to chassis "open" with "cutout" relay open. 37.8 ohms with "cutout" relay closed.
This is a positive or negative "ground" unit.
Hope this may be of some use to those doing their own electrical troubleshooting.
You other "sparkies" chime in with additions, OK?
Thanks
