Default Alternator/VR wiring diagram

Hello:

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a GM Delco-remy alternator setup with a voltage regulator separately mounted on the firewall? I have a 12V negative ground setup.

There are two wires coming from the three connector pins (one unused) on the alternator and another wire connected to the + pole of the alternator.

I am also looking to install an amp meter where appropriate in the circuit.

Thanks,

Mike Green

Many thanks. Where would I put an amp meter in this circuit?

An ammeter should go between the positive terminal on the battery and the junction block. Or a voltmeter could go between a ground and the IGN terminal on the ignition switch.
