British Ferret Generators testing

[robin craig]

Good day all,

 

I am trying to help a friend remotely with some problems.

The British Ferrets had a two speed and then a single speed generator fitted.

Can we assume the the electrical socket connections to either one are the same plug and pin matrix? Is there a diagram of that with a legend.

Can anyone share any kind of bench testing method for a generator before installation to ensure the unit will work correctly?

Personally I am not an electrical guy at all and this baffles me somewhat. I know my limitations.

yours in advance appreciation

Robin the connectors are entirely different for the generators & their panels. The original 2-speed 25A dynamo was Generator No. 2 the replacement was the 90A alternator Generator No. 10.

There is a Ferret wiring diagram for this towards the end of my All Charged Up article.

Clive, as always, thank you sir. I will go have a look at see what I can make out and get back to you if needed.
