I am wirning a 1946 Farmall B. I am using a 6 volt positive ground set up with a 6 volt saddle mount voltage regulator on the generator. I have a question regarding the connections from the generator to the regulator. I have connected a wire from the armature connection on the generator to the generator connection on the regulator. The diagram I am using shows a wire from the Field connection on the generator to the field resistance connector on the original 3 position switch I am using. My question is since I am using a voltage regulator should I eliminate this connection an run a wire from the Field connection on the generator to the Field connection on the regulator and then run a wire from the L connection on the regulator to the Field resistance connection on the switch.
I think if I do this the regulator determines the charge to the switch rather than sending the charge directly to the switch and letting the Field resistance wire control the voltage to the switch.
If there is a good drawing out there that shows the wiring on this tractor using a voltage regulator and the original 3 position switch that would be great.
