Most alternators follow a similar wiring scheme. Below is a short list of the terminals, and what they mean.

BAT: This is the main battery terminal. It is the same on all alternators. The Delco 10SI, the Delco 121/130 series, the Nippondenso alternators.. Hitachi.. etc.

S: The sense terminal. This is pin 2 on the 10SI. Connect this either to your battery, or the alternator BAT stud. On the Delco 121/130 series alternators, this terminal will usually be under the rubber packing. You need not connect it on the 121/130 Delco - this alternator uses internal sensing. I break out this terminal and use it only when I am using two batteries and a battery isolator.

I: The exciter (ignition) terminal. This is pin 1 on the 10SI. Connect it to your ignition switch. You may or may not need a diode, depending on the alternator. On the 10SI, you can use a diode or lamp configuration.

L: The indicator lamp. You don't need to use this terminal. Attach a warning lamp here, as you would on a 10SI, if you wish.

This is a quick and dirty run down of the various terminals. There's really not much difference between one alternator or the other. The 10SI is the most popular because of the price. I suspect that the Delco 121 or 130 alternators should be inexpensive too - they started using them in about '85, right after the discontinued the 10SI. I don't know the physical size of the 121, but it might be smaller than the 10SI. I know for certain that a Nippondenso for an old mid-80s Toyota will be smaller.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
