- It should measure the same, since the voltage at the battery terminals, when the altenator is active, is the altenator voltage. The altenator runs at 13.5-14.5 V, depending on the level of charge on

- Actually, the regulator does not ever remove the alternator from the circuit. That happens only with DC generators. For an alternator (AC generator), reverse current is prevented by the diodes. The r
