6 IDENTIFICATION STICKER
The example above shows the main characteristics to be observed before installation.
NOTE
1. The identification sticker is located under the regulator.
7 PROTECTIVE FUSE
The fuse is used to limit the power supply input current to protect the alternatorfield. The voltage regulators AVR-A-OPT-
03 are equipped with a controlled rectifier that forces the field voltage to obtain the correct alternatoroutput voltage. When
operating with the maximum field voltage the power input current is
a half of the field current. So, the fuse current must be a little more than the field voltage supported by the voltage regulator.
Some fuse characteristics are listed bellow.
