ABSTRACT:
In a brushless synchronous generator having a three phase, WYE connected exciter armature providing current which is rectified by a half-wave rectifier before energizing a field of a main generator, a conductor is required to couple a neutral lead of the exciter armature to a negative input terminal of the main generator field.
In order to overcome the foregoing problem, a rotary rectifier assembly for a brushless synchronous generator is disclosed. The rotary rectifier assembly comprises a housing, three diodes, three resistors, wherein the diodes and the resistors are interconnected to form a three phase half-wave rectifier bridge within the housing, and a neutral conductor coupled between the neutral output lead and the negative input lead and carried within the housing.
