Re: EZ wiring

I think I figured it out!

Looking at what the difference between a one wire and 3 wire alternators are.

A one wire alternator is for more basic electrical systems. Charges battery and there's very little extra electrical stuff like lights, fans, ect.

The three wire alternator is better for systems with more electrical add ons. All those components pull on the system and cause voltage differences when different stuff was being used. The three wire can be wired to the main buss to help regulate equal continuous voltage at all times.

Sound right so far?
