I can never tell which way these damn alternators and generators are wound. End up wiring them up backwards and blowing up the motor..which a bunch of us did 2 months ago. Talk about brix shat..

TLDR: I hate text books.
What to have some fun, get a honking big electolytic cap, charge it up and toss it to your professor, be warned though I found mine had no sense of humor at all
