So, today I tried to do an amperage test to see what the current draw is when the dry cell batteries are supplying power to one alternator. I know I'm not proficient in the use of a multimeter ... I had no success. I even resorted to YouTube to see how to measure an amperage load, and I followed those instructions, but to no avail. I'll attempt that again tomorrow.

I checked the grounding circuit and there was no resistance at all between the ring terminal on the negative battery cable and the airframe anywhere I measured it, even at the alternators.

Tomorrow is another day...
