Josef,
the wire between the alternator and the starter solenoid was mentioned,
because this one is the connection between the alternator and the cable to
the battery. I think the 3-way connection mentioned by John Harper "meets"
at this point.
Regarding your suggestion I would suggest you think about it once more.
Best regards

Hello Richard,
you are fully right. When disconnecting the battery on an alternator or
generator equipped car the voltage can spike up to double or third or even
more of the 13 Volts, as the voltage regulator would not work anymore
without the battery as a reference. I would suggest only those who can
really add good knowledge should give advice what to do and the others stay
silent and listen to those who know what they are talking about.
To be on the save side the "feeding wire" from the alternator to the battery
should be checked and in case enlarged or a second wire added in parallel.
The wire to the starter solenoid was also mentioned. I do not understand why
the wire to the starter solenoid is of any importance in this case.
I am just wondering, and I am an electronic engineer.
