Abstract

A rectifier and brush assembly for an alternator has a rectifier comprising two parallel spaced phase plates carrying respective sets of diodes. The terminals of respective diodes of the sets are soldered to respective connectors. One terminal of each of a set of field diodes is also soldered to each connector while the other terminal of each field diode is soldered to a connector common to all the field diodes. This common connector has an integral apertured flange which is secured by a screw against a conductive plate carried by a housing for the brushes. The conductive plate is electrically connected with one of the brushes in the brush housing. The brush housing also carries a voltage regulator of which a lead is crimped to an apertured electrical connector secured by the screw to the conductive plate.
