Abstract
An electrical power supply assembly for an internal combustion engine. In one embodiment, the assembly includes a dual circuit alternator that provides dual unregulated voltage signals to a supply connector. The supply connector is electrically connected to an input connector. A regulator receives one of unregulated voltage signals from the input connector and provides a regulated voltage signal to one contact at an output connector. A bypass conductor conducts the other unregulated voltage signal from the input connector to another contact at the output connector. The output connector is configured to be electrically connected to a dual load circuit connector. The dual load circuit connector is electrically connected to load circuits having different demands for regulated and unregulated electrical power.
