The alternator and starter motor are mounted behind the cylinders. A synchronous motor/alternator is connected on the mains via a choke. The electric motor is integrated into the transmission housing, replacing the alternator and the starter. The MP40PH-3C also uses an EMD alternator and traction motors. They retain their original TA22 main alternator and 1TB2830 traction motors. The electrical system was further revised with a new type of Wipac alternator and rotor. The construction of synchronous motor is similar to that of a synchronous alternator. Each generator set will consist of a MAN D2876 diesel engine driving an ABB alternator. Two types of motor alternator were used. The windings of an alternator have a large inductance. Occasionally, a linear alternator or a rotating armature with a stationary magnetic field is used. The 5.9 also included working hood vents, upgraded alternator, and unique exhaust . The modifications included a more powerful engine, a new alternator, and external lighting. In guided missiles, such generators can replace a flux switching alternator. The 5.9 Limited also received a 150 amp alternator and a 2-speed electric cooling fan.
