Not sure what your alternator switch does. I have 2 switches - a 30 amp output breaker and a 5 amp field breaker/switch. On hot days if I let the engine rpm get too low right after startup the field breaker trips. Once the battery is charged it doesn’t do it.

Hi. I have noticed on two different occasions that I have lost my charging from my alternator. Cycling the alternator switch seems to bring it back. Could the switch be worn/weak? This is a 1960 Forney with 0-200 and alternator conversion. Thanks in advance. Mike
