Thread: The Big 3, Everything You Wanted to Know + DIY

. So now you would put a wire from the starter, to the battery.. with a fuse in it?

Or am I reading this schematic wrong. The "Generator" at the bottom seems to me to be the starter.. or is that the alt? lol I'm all confused trying to follow you guys now.

Not exactly. Wire 32 BLK - 2 goes to the alternator and wire 32 BLK - 1 goes to the starter.

Generator is an alternator
Starter is only a starter that is initiated by a power source ( ie solenoid / battery.

A starter / generator is what aircraft jet engines use.

BTW I have an FAA power plants & Airframe License.
