Fun OT stuff there Mayor Bob.... I figure the reason lay persons believe the old wives tale you have to Polarize a Voltage Regulator (NOT the Genny which is actually what needs Polarized) is because when you buy a Voltage Regulator it contains instructions for Polarization and why are those in there?? Because if the genny isnt correctly polarized you can trash that brand new VR.
I like the one where a dude (one of those know it all types) told me (retired electrical distribution engineer) the Utility company can "turn up" a utility transformer TO PUT OUT MORE "JUICE" I tried to explain to him transformers do indeed have higher and lower voltage tap adjustments to raise or lower voltage say like 2 1/2% or 5 % etc BUT HE SAID NOOOOOOOOO THATS NOT TRUE BUT THEY CAN SET THEM TO PUT OUT MORE JUICE I never dared ask him to explain the term JUICE lol
Had another know it all guy tell me his tractor kept burning up points and it was all because his Generator was putting out too much JUICE.
Think I'll have breakfast now, maybe drink some orange JUICE lol
