    Mep003a blowing resistor on bridge rectifier

    I doubt the transformer has an issue. It is just windings in an iron field. The primary side windings are the output of the generator, when the load increases, the magnetic field increases which increases the voltage and current on the secondary. This increase helps to stabilize the output...
