Thanks again Roger, I agree with all that and is the same as I understand and explain it BUTTTTTTTTT my question is really a tad different and more precise. Its only the internal workings and wiring of the so called "Cutout Relay" that has the extra F terminal that Im still unsure of ????? I understand BOTH the full fledged 3 or 4 terminal VR and the simple (BAT GEN) 2 wire Cutout Relay

ITS THE CUTOUT RELAY WITH THE EXTRA 3RD FLD TERMINAL which Im still unfamilair with??????????????

If I understood your original post, if its the 3 terminal Cutout relay with the FLD terminal then the Gennys FLD post wires to that INSTEAD of the low/high light switch as when the simple 2 wire Cutout relay is used. I got NO PROBLEM with any of that, I'm just not sure what that Cutout Relay with the 3rd FLD terminal does inside (I understand the cutout portion, its ONLY the Field current control portion Im questioning) ???????? My question is does it alwaysssssss add field resistance for a low charge condition or does it have another field control relay seperate from the ordinary cutout thats used to regulate field current by switching from dead ground high charge or resistive ground low charge, tantamount to functioning like an automatic ligth switch to select charge rate???????? Seems if so it may have two instead of only one internal relay like the simple 2 wire cutout relay uses.

The full fledged Voltage Regulator has EITHER two or 3 internal relays. If its a 2 relay ones the cutout and the other is EITHER a current control relay orrrrrrrrrr a combination current n voltage control relay. If its a 3 relay VR ones the cutout relay, ones the current control, other is voltage control.

ITS ONLT THE CUTOUT RELAY WITH THE EXTRA 3RD F TERMINAL IM UNSIRE OF grrrrrrrrrrrrr lol

I guess from both your posts Im still a lil cornfused as to if the 3 pole cutout is used with the F terminal, is the light switch still used or not??????????????? and if its NOT used, and if it just runs the field to ground via its own internal resistor THEN HOW DOES IT EVER SWITCH TO A DEAD GROUNDED FIELD FOR HIGH CHARGE?????????? UNLESS it has another relay in addition to the normal cutout relay

We may have to take this off line so we dont bore n cornfuse the others lol

Thanks again, funnnnnn chat (for us at least)

Take care n God Bless
