Bob,
In the same vein...
After having a new intercom fitted in my radio stack, I have developed a serious amount of radio noise as soon as the rpm's hit the 2000 mark. The sq button has no effect on the severity of this noise. It is as if a source is transmitting to the radio!
I am told that adding a 22000 microfarad cap across the power feed to the radios will solve this problem.
What says the brains trust?

That IS the legacy rationale for adding such things
and it's a deeply rooted idea did
a failure analysis on a modern, 100A alternator
that came equipped from the factory with a 680uF
electrolytic capacitor mounted right to the back
of the alternator.

I am quite certain that noise from this alternator on
EMC laboratory equipment would not be materially
reduced for having added the capacitor. I'd
LOVE to see an EMC test report that illuminates
the 'benefit'.
I just purchased a spectrum analyzer that sweeps
down to 1Hz and up to 2.4 Ghz. When I begin
development testing on the next generation of
PM alternator rectifier/regulators for B&C I will
quantify the value of adding this component
to our airplanes.

Is that the actual size of the capacitor for that application?

Rich, this is what was recommended by the avionics shop
