There are a full range of regulators available for different make/model alternators. My 69 rr was not charging except at high rpm so i swapped out the alternator for a new one. The normal charging voltage on a typical application might be 13.9 to 15.1 volts at 77 degrees f.

If The Voltage Stays At 15.5 Volts After The Car’s Been Running Awhile, Your Battery Could Have A Shorting Cell, Therefore It’s Bad.


A standard alternator that charges the car battery during starting and the voltage range while. From what i can see the alternator output voltage to the battery should always be less than 15 volts with engine rpm under 2000 rpm. Is 15 volts too high for alternator?

The Bad One Was A Square Back 3 Terminal Unit, So I Picked Up A New.


Check the output at the alternator, if it is greater than 15 volts, the alternator voltage regulator is bad. If your battery tests good , your regulator circuitry isn’t. For some, a constant 13.6 volts is an indication of a problem.

For Some Alternators, It’s Normal To See As Low As 13 Volts.


I traced the voltage drop all the way back to the engine fuse box. The normal alternator voltage output should fall within the range of 13.5 to 15 volts. Normal output for an alternator is 14 to 14.5 volts.

An Alternator Is Expected To Generate Not More Than 13 Volts, Anything More Than That Would Have A Damaging Effect.


The normal charging voltage on a typical application might be 13.9 to 15.1 volts at 77 degrees f. But at 20 degrees f. Another test you could try, there should be.

What is the correct voltage? Sense wire thought battery was being charged at 14.5ish when in reality it was at least a full volt higher. Is 15 volts too high for a car alternator?
