I am studying about boats and doing a quiz test .Having problems finding this answer.
I aasumed it was C. Sent to ground
but think it may be D.Help me out Please!!!
I already answered this.
There is no excess current. That is a fiction.
You may not like this answer, but it is the correct one.
The regulator controls the current put out by the alternator based on the state of the battery charge. So at a particular state of the battery, the regulator may call for 50 amps of current to charge the battery.
If the accessories are drawing 40 amps, the regulator will probably increase the current from the alternator to a value higher than 50 amps to compensate for the accessories draw.
Scams like the HHO outfits assume that, since the alternator is capable of 100 amps output, and when the battery is charged it only draws perhaps 10 amps, then the other 90 amps is "excess current" and is available for free use. But that is not true.
