- Chapter 12: Fundamentals of Electricity & Electronics › Voltage Regulation of Alternators › Alternator Transistorized Regulators
avoid this, the generators must be synchronized as closely as possible before connecting them together. Regulating the voltage output of a DC exciter, which supplies current to the alternator rotor field, best controls the output voltage of an alternator. This ... accomplished by the regulation of a 28-volt system connected in the field circuit of the exciter. A regulator controls the exciter field current and thus regulates the exciter output voltage applied to the alternator field. Figure 12-339. Overspeed…

Chapter 2: Regulations, Maintenance Forms, Records, & Publications Overview — Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Aviation-related regulations that have occurred from 1926– 1966 are reflected in Figure 2-1. Just as aircraft continue to evolve with ... ever improving technology, so do the regulations, publications, forms, and records required to design, build, and maintain them. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations that govern today’s aircraft are found in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations…
- Chapter 12: Fundamentals of Electricity & Electronics › Three-Phase Alternator › Three Unit Regulators
Three Unit Regulators Many light aircraft employ a three unit regulator for their generator systems. [Figure 12-329] This type of regulator includes a current limiter and a reverse current cut-out in addition to a voltage regulator. The action ... voltage regulator unit is similar to the vibrating-type regulator described earlier. The second of the three units is a current regulator to limit the output current of the generator. The third unit is a reverse current cut-out that…
