Procedure 5.1 - Measuring the Resistance of a Generator
Caution
Remove power from the EFX before you measure magnet resistance.
Procedure
1.
Remove the rear cover and disconnect the red battery lead from terminal M6 of the lower
PCA.
WARNING
Before continuing with this procedure, review the Warning and Caution statements listed in
Section One, Things You Should Know.
2.
Set the ohmmeter to a range that will conveniently read up to 50
Ω
.
3.
Remove the six phase generator connector from the lower PCA, refer to Diagram 5.1,
below.
4.
With an ohmmeter, read between terminals 1 & 2, terminals 1 & 3, terminals 1 & 5, terminals
1 & 6, and terminals 1 & 7 on the six phase generator connector (J1). Each of the six
readings should be between 36
Ω
and 39
Ω.
5.
If any of the readings are significantly high or significantly low, remove the intermediate
cable from the generator and perform the same measurements as in step 4 on the
generator connector. If the reading are now correct check and or replace the intermediate
cable. If the readings are still incorrect, remove the six phase generator.
