R1224 Regulator Installation Instruction SECTION 4 - CHECK General A. This section defines the various checks and inspections needed to assure reliable and safe operation of the alternator while in service. They are listed in hours time in service (TIS) or in calendar time, whichever is applicable and are the first to occur when offered a choice.
R1224 Regulator Installation Instruction SECTION 5 - TESTING General Perform all tests and checks in accordance with appropriate aircraft/engine maintenance manuals and service instructions. Alternatively, Table 3.1 of Section 3 may be utilized to test the regulator for proper function.
Some aircraft models were manufactured with different regulators and different wiring arrangements, plugs, etc. Some installations can be accomplished using the basic R1224 Installation Instructions in paragraph 6.2 and 6.3 , this section. Supplemental information for individual regulators is provided where necessary. To account for model differences follow the steps below to ensure proper replacement: Find your aircraft model and OEM P/N in Table 6-1.

A. Installation Remove existing regulator and solid-state over-voltage module (if installed). (2) Install the regulator (R1224/R1224B/R1224J) in same location as regulator being replaced. If mounting holes do not align, add mounting holes as required using acceptable methods, techniques and practices such as those found in AC 43-13-1B and AC 43-13-2B.
If applicable for LAMP function, connect a locally manufactured jumper between R1224 #3 (Enable) & #4 (Aux). For R1224 Rev C and later (Fig. 6-1): Remove jumper between #8 (Sense) and #3 (Enable). Connect the A (Sense) wire to R1224 #8 (Sense).
For R1224 Rev C and later: Remove jumper between #8 (SENSE) and #3 (ENABLE). Connect the Orange (Sense) wire to R1224 #8 (SENSE). (10) Insulate the end of the White (OV Lamp) wire and stow it safely. (The R1224 indicates Over Voltage and Low Voltage on a common lamp connected to R1224 #5.) (11) Adjust voltage as necessary with engine running and alternator enabled.
R1224 Regulator Installation Instruction For R1224 Rev B and earlier: Insulate the end of the A (Sense) wire and stow it safely. For R1224 Rev C and later: Remove jumper between #8 (SENSE) and #3 (ENABLE). Connect the Orange (Sense) wire to R1224 #8 (SENSE) Adjust voltage as necessary with engine running and alternator enabled.
Cut the wires close to the regulator case of the Electrodelta or Wico regulators and crimp one appropiate ring lug with the R1224 on each Red and Blue (or Yellow) wire. Remove remaining wires or insulate the ends.
R1224 Regulator Installation Instruction 6.11 Regulator Installation Guide-H A. General Use 2 R1224B as the mounting holes match the Lamar regulators. Both regulators must be replaced. Ensure that the R1224B internal jumpers are set properly for the aircraft voltage (Fig 6-1).
Ensure that the factory installed jumper between SENSE and ENABLE is in place. B. Prepare the installation Cut the wires at the regulator body and new ring lugs provided with the R1224 regulator. Unplug the wire connector from the aircraft plug.
Remove old regulator. Ensure that the R1224 jumpers are set for 28V. See Plane-Power R1224 Installation Drawing 12-1001. Install R1224 using the 12-1021adaptor plate. Put the large ring lug on the black wire under one of the mounting bolts.
Add a jumper between ENABLE and AUX. B. Prepare the installation: Cut the terminals off the end of these wires and install new ring lugs provided with the R1224 regulator. C. Replace the regulator Remove the FORD-type regulator from the aircraft.
Remove Interav regulator and over voltage relay. The R1224 has internal over voltage protection, so the Interav over voltage relay is no longer needed. Ensure that the R1224 jumpers are set for 14V (Fig. 6-1). Add a jumper between SENSE and AUX on both R1224B regulators.
R1224 Regulator Installation Instruction 6.17 Regulator Installation Guide-N A. General Replacement of Jasco J12M20SP (12V) or J12M24SP (24V) regulators. B. Prepare the replacement regulator Use R1224J, ensure regulator jumpers are set to match aircraft battery voltage (Fig. 6-1). Add jumper between ENABLE and AUX terminals (Regulator side only).
