Back again....

The 3 phase alternator produces ac. The rectifier unit converts the 3 phase ac to single phase dc, which feeds the battery. The silicon control rectifiers control the dc to the battery, so there can be no over voltage.

What's with this "stator"? No such thing on an alternator. They only existed on the old fashioned dynamos that went out 50 years ago. Sorry, but you're clouding the issue with incorrect advice.

Check the drawings that I've included (above) & you should be able to follow the circuit.
