ABSTRACT:
A circuit for indicating faults in a storage battery charging system of the type including an alternator having a field winding and a rectifier circuit having respective battery charging and alternator field winding energizing output circuit terminals. A differential amplifier circuit, to which is applied normally equal reference sensing potentials which become unbalanced with alternator faults, produces a first fault indicating signal in the event of an alternator malfunction and a transistor having the control electrode connected to the rectifier circuit field winding energizing output circuit terminal produces a second fault indicating signal in the event of a failure of one of the diodes in the rectifier field winding energizing output circuit. These fault indicating signals trigger a transistor conductive to complete an energizing circuit for a fault indicating device.
