Electrical field connection

摘要

A brush holder and voltage regulator are secured to a metallic end frame of an alternating current generator by a metal screw that extends through aligned openings that extend respectively through the brush holder and voltage regulator. The brush holder has a pair of opposed metal terminals and the voltage regulator has a pair of opposed metal terminals. All of the terminals have openings that are aligned with the openings in the brush holder and voltage regulator. The screw extends through the openings in the terminals and has a threaded portion that is threaded into a threaded bore in the end frame. One of the terminals on the brush holder directly engages a surface on the end frame. The other terminal on the brush holder directly engages a terminal on the voltage regulator. The other terminal on the voltage regulator is electrically connected to the end frame by the screw.
