Z-11 shows the S wire of the Ford regulator tied in to the A terminal. Our Hartzell alternator has a dedicated Sta terminal so I'm guessing that the S terminal of the regulator should go to the Sta terminal on the alternator instead of being tied into the alternator switch going to the A terminal? Can anyone please confirm if this makes sense or not?

Nope, don’t do that. The Ford regulator doesn’t use the stator terminal. PlanePower’s regulator does.

   The "s" terminal did go to the stator

   winding in cars . . . but is best

   paralleled with "a" in airplanes.

   Ignore the aux, n or s terminals on

   the alternator.

   This is because the solid state replacement

   for the Ford E-M regulator is NOT a

   strictly functional replacement. The "S"

   terminal does not behave in the same

   manner as it did on the E-M products.

So for any VR166 regulator and Ford type alternator combination wire as per Z-11.

Thank you Bob.
