Installation by Wire

NOTE: Must install wires listed on this page for regulator to operate.

Install BLACK Ground Wire

The BLACK Ground Wire #1 in diagram at right is included in the four-wire Ford-style plug on the wiring

harness and is factory installed on regulator packages designated with "H" at the end of the model

number. The other end of the Ground Wire is fitted with a ring terminal connector. In most applications,

this wire can be connected directly to the alternator's ground terminal post. For best accuracy ground as

close to the battery as possible. Both the alternator and regulator must be connected to system ground.

Install RED Power Wire

The RED Field Wire #2 in diagram at right is included in the four-wire Ford style plug and is factory

installed on regulator packages designated with "H" at the end of the model number. The other end of

the Power Wire is fitted with a ring terminal connector. In most applications, this wire can be connected

directly to the alternator's positive output post. When a diode-type battery isolator is used, the power

and voltage sense (#9) wires must be connected to the battery side of the battery isolator. Power Wire is

equipped with 10-amp ATC type fuse. The Power Wire must be fused to ensure against damage to the

voltage regulator.

Install BROWN Ignition Wire

The BROWN Ignition Wire #3 in diagram at right provides ON/OFF voltage for the regulator. This

wire is included in the Ford-style plug at the regulator end of the wiring harness. The other end of the wire is fitted with a butt

connector. Typically, the ignition wire is connected to the ON side of the ignition switch. This may be at the actual switch, or to

a wire in the existing engine wiring loom that delivers switched voltage from the ignition switch. In some cases, an oil pressure

switch may be used to activate the regulator. In either case, the regulator's ignition wire must see zero volts when the engine

ignition is switched off.

Install BLUE Field Wire

The BLUE Field Wire #4 in diagram at right provides regulated current to control alternator output. The wire is included in the

wiring harness Ford-style plug and is pre-connected at the regulator. At the other end of the wire, you'll find either a plug or a

ring terminal, depending on the alternator's field terminal connection. Attach the field wire to the alternator's field terminal.

Install Alternator Temperature Sensor

The optional Alternator Temperature Sensor (MC-TS-A) allows your MC-614 voltage regulator to monitor your alternator

temperatures and limit output if safe operating levels are exceeded. The MC-614 uses active temperature regulation to

maximize high-temperature output. The MC-TS-A sensor includes a 54" cable, a sensing attachment lug, and positive and

negative regulator plug-in connectors. To install the MC-TS-A:

Connect the sensor lug to one of the four bolts that hold the alternator's front and rear cases together. If a Balmar alternator

is installed use the predrilled location provided on the rear case. Extend sensor cable to the regulator. The cable can be

included within the regulator's wiring harness, or can be run alongside the harness and attached with cable ties.

Connect the temperature sensor to the Alt. Temp. terminals on the regulator. It is

essential that the terminals are connected to the correct pin. Connect the red wire to the

positive terminal #6 and the black wire to the negative terminal #5.

Install Positive Battery Sense Wire

Included with the MC-614 wiring harness kit is a fused wiring pigtail which features a ring

terminal at one end and a butt connector at the other. In the center is a 1-Amp ATC-type fuse

and fuse holder. This wire MUST be connected at the (#9) Positive Battery Sense Terminal.

A female quick connect plug has been pre-attached on the terminal (#9) pin. To complete

installation of the sense circuit:

Identify the favored location for battery sensing. In most instances, the positive output of the alternator, the common side of

a battery switch, or the positive post of the battery being charged will work best. If the batteries are connected to a battery

isolator, the positive sense wire must be connected to the battery side of the isolator, preferably at the larger of the battery

banks.

Attach the included wiring pigtail with 1-amp fuse to a length of wire of sufficient length to reach the desired sensing

location. If the length of the wire between the regulator and the sensing location is 8' or less, a 16-gauge wire is

satisfactory. If the wire exceeds 8', increase the wire size to 14 gauge.

Remove the female 1/4" spade terminal from the terminal (#9) pin. Crimp the spade terminal to the sense wire and

reconnect the spade to the (#9) pin.
