   to test series and interpoles (commutating) fields from a DC motor; to determine phasing and polarity in multiwinding armatures; to test rotors in rotating frequency changers, as well as in wound rotors; to test shorts between turns in taped coils before installation into an armature or a stator; as a low voltage isolation transformer

3. Alternator (automotive) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator_(automotive)

   Alternator (silver) mounted on a V8 engine Alternator voltage regulator (brushes are worn out) An alternator is a type of electric generator used in modern automobiles to charge the battery and to power the electrical system when its engine is running. Until the 1960s, automobiles used DC dynamo generators with commutators.

4. Alternator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternator

   The main alternator is the larger of the two sections, and the smaller one is the exciter. The exciter has stationary field coils and a rotating armature (power coils). The main alternator uses the opposite configuration with a rotating field and stationary armature. A bridge rectifier, called the rotating rectifier assembly, is mounted on the ...

   Test your battery before you try to start the car. You can get a good tester on Amazon for less than $20. Even if it’s OK, your battery might need a jump after all that time spent in storage.

6. Continuity test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

   In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker ) across the chosen path.

7. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

   An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor , which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.

8. Load dump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_dump

   The field winding of an alternator has a large inductance. When the vehicle battery is being charged, the alternator generates a large current, the magnitude of which is controlled by the current in the field winding. If the battery becomes disconnected while it is being charged the load on the alternator suddenly decreases.
