Bob, that's pretty clever. In my case how "fancy" should I go? For connections
to the load from the battery, I was thinking of simply using two leads of #10
wire with alligator clips on both ends and having an inline fuseholder on one
lead with a 15A fuse. Or...do I fabricate a switched/fused platform, with
ring terminals for connections, etc? User preference?

| Subject: | Rainy day project |
Been trying to wrap up a fuel tank/pump/sender
replacement on the ol' pick-em-up-truck . . . too
cold and wet for these ol' bones to lay under
the beast on a creeper! The truck has been up on jacks for
about 10 days and I'm down to a couple hours
work to finish . . . but not to let a rainy day
go to waste.
I mentioned a goal to formalize some demonstrations
and data gathering on fusible link materials.
Been pondering ways to generate 100 to 800A
test currents. Settled on this approach this
morning:
Configure the link-under-test with a switched
dead-short across it using a contactor. Wire
the test article to a fat battery, (I've got
a couple 100ah tractor batteries on hand
at the moment) and a battery load tester.
The test starts with the contactor closed.
Then crank up the battery tester load to the
desired test current then open the contactor.
The 'test' indicator lamp will be visible
in a video that records response of the
fusible link. Depending on weather, I might
get a chance to shoot some video yet this
week.
It's been awhile since I deliberately let
the smoke out of stuff . . . this should
be fun.
Bob . . .

What you describe would be fine. You're not
switching a really big current . . . yeah, there
will be some 'sparking' when you clip the final
joint closed but they don't call us electron-herders
'sparkies' for nothing.
20 AWG wire would be fine . . . the leads are
short and the anticipated 13A load is easily
managed by that size wire. Same with alligator
clips.
KISS my friend . . . KISS

Dear list
Can someone direct me to a definitive wiring guide for the JD voltage
regulator. Ive found it in the past but cant find it now.
Thanks

what's the part number on your
regulator.

Can you post a picture of your John Deere regulator?
If it looks like this one, B+ terminal goes to a 30 amp fuse that is connected
to the downstream side of battery contactor.
The AC terminals connect to Rotax permanent magnet generator (yellow wires)
L is for a lamp. Usually not used.
IGW connects to a switch (labeled "Alternator") which gets 12 volts from a 3 amp
fuse on the main power bus.
Be sure to mount regulator using heat conductive grease between aluminum surfaces.

I originally bought this as a back up to carry in my flying tool/spares
pack. I thought it might be a good idea to know how to install it.
thanks

Thanks Bob, once I get setup and gather some data, I'll post results.

Now that you mention it, the emacs issue seems to have disappeared.
I checked all my archived digests and the last time I saw it was on
March 13 in this digest post.
