Autoshite Sparkys - Your Smoke Is Our Concern

My 3 cyl two stroke Munga had vast 24v bosch alternator as it was used a radio truck so got a rotary converter (24Vdc to 220Vac) and electric toasted sandwich maker for the ultimate in car snacking during London rush hour traffic jams.

 

If it wasn't yet molested, it would have had the wiring of my dreams.

Originally, all cables are routed through water proof channels welded inside the body, which are ventilated with warm air, when the engine runs, so water can't even enter them, when there is a leak. This is exactly what I mean with U-boot-quality.

We have the imprint in the floor at work from the 2000 Amp (slo-blo) option, with half of the top melted away. It was white-hot by the time it was smacked off the busbars. By my judgement an 11mm spanner will melt at about 800-1000 Amps. It tripped the rectifier units and those are rated at 600 Amps.
