SEV MOTOROLA Alternators: Description

SEV Motorola alternators are conventional three-phase, self-rectifying type alternators. Six silicon diodes (three positive and three negative) are used to rectify AC current.

NOTE: Either SEV Motorola or Bosch alternators may be used. Due to the wide variance in application and output for the various models, not all individual part numbers and ratings may be shown. Always check identification plate attached to housing.
