Abstract
To provide a vehicular charging and generating system capable of issuing alarm to a driver even when failure is caused in a rectifying apparatus of the vehicular charging and generating system, failure detecting means issues alarm when a difference between an output voltage of generated voltage detecting means and an output voltage of average phase voltage detecting means is higher than first difference voltage set when failure is not caused in a rectifying element or when the difference is lower than second difference voltage set when failure is not caused in the rectifying element.
Claims5
A vehicular charging and generating system having a full wave rectifier for rectifying alternating current output voltage of an armature coil for outputting alternating current voltage to direct current voltage, said vehicular charging and generating system comprising:
- failure detecting means for detecting a failure of a rectifying element constituting the rectifier;
- wherein an alarm is issued when the failure of the rectifying element is detected by the failure detecting means.
