Hi,
The attached pictures are supposed to illustrate an alternator from a WWII aircraft. Any ideas which?
Regards,
Jon

Hi Jon,
24 V as opposed to 12 volts points to a late war/post war unit.
The frequency of 1200 to 2400 hertz is typical for a alternator to supply the valve radio and radar sets.
For examples try Google search for T1154 and R1155 installation.
Regards
Ross

Looking at the drive it is Merlin driven.
