Q3112 An alternator control unit controls load balancing across each alternator. How does this system function?

Only one alternator is required for aircraft power and thus ensures the aircraft alternates between each BUS.

Loading is shifted to the alternator with the the lowest internal temperature first.

The load is split across both alternators equally - at all times.

Loading is shifted to the alternator with the highest internal temperature first; as a higher temperature indicates higher efficiency.
