The alternating current generated by the generator is converted by the rectifier diodes into direct current, which is used to recharge the battery and power the on-board network consumers. The regulator converts the charging current so that the operating voltage is about 14 V regardless of the generator rotation frequency.
In cars with diesel engines, a vacuum pump is attached to the opposite side of the alternator to the V-belt pulley. It is driven by the alternator shaft and creates the necessary vacuum for the brake booster.
