The hot wire to the generator is disconnected each time the contacts open in the regulator.
Polarizing a generator results in magnetizing the pole shoes. The residual magnetism in the pole shoes create the magnetic lines of force necessary for the generator to start charging. As long as so magnetism remains in the pole shoes the generator should be able to start charging. Which way they were magnetized will determine whether it will charge with positive ground or negative ground. Polarizing each time a battery is installed is a good way to insure that if the battery is installed backwards the regulator will not be fried.
