Hope some fellow aviators can tell me some info about my alternator. It’s working fine, but I want to find out if it has over voltage protection. I didn’t build my plane and I believe vans sold these back in the day.
Make?
OV protected?
Anybody had issues?
Reason I ask is Uavionix said my AV 30 failed from a voltage surge. Nothing else failed and my standard voltmeter stayed stable at 14.4v. Plus the AV 30 specs claim max input 60v. I’m pretty sure I’d seen smoke with that.
Hope you can help.
Thanks John
