ABSTRACT:
A direct current ramp potential signal which is produced in synchronism with each half cycle of the alternator output voltage and increases in magnitude within a predetermined range during each half cycle is compared with a direct current reference potential signal inversely proportional to alternator connected load. Circuitry is provided for effecting the electrical energization of the alternator field winding in response to an electrical signal produced when the potential level of the ramp potential signal has reached a value equal to that of the reference potential signal. Provision is also made for effecting the deenergization of the alternator field winding with sustained overvoltage conditions and for ramping the output voltage down linearly with conditions of output potential frequencies less than the desired frequency.
