    wiring a 24 volt altinator to stand alone battery bank

    Hi I have a FFR 110 Perentie I would like to use the existing 24 volt alternator to charge a 24 volt stand alone battery bank.
    Please note that the 24 volt distribution board and 4 batteries were removed from the vehicle when I purchased it there is only the 3 wires from the alternator to where the switch board was, the fan belts that where fitted to drive the alternator where removed as well, so the system fully isolated
    Can any one supply me with a schematic of how to wire the alternator to charge the new stand alone 24 volt battery bank please keep it as simple as possible as I am not that technical minded, can follow simple drawings.
    The wires that are remaining and connected to the24 volt alternator are as follows.
    1)Heavy red cable
    2)Heavy black cable
    3)light yellow cable (sense cable)
    any help would be much appreciated
    Brad

    as per Pm incase someone else is following

    red to 24v+ via 100A circuit breaker, preferably a switch type
    black to -ve
    yellow to a 24v supply for alternator sense.

    do not run with either the red or the black disconnected and the yellow wire connected.

    not in the PM...


    pick up for the sense line is best done as follows
    from 24+ve into circuit breaker
    pick up the switched side of the circuit breaker and connect to the common contact of a SPST relay
    from the NO contact of the relay connect yellow sense from the alternator
    drive for the relay comes from a switched 12V and earth as per normal.
