  Check the push-n connectors on the back of the alternator and all other
  field connections including voltage regulator. The slightest bit of
  looseness results in arcing and oxidation of the contacting surfaces causing
  voltage drop which the regulator senses so it increases the field voltage to
  up the alternator output. Eventually at the peak of one of the up/down
  swings of the voltage, it will spike causing the field breaker to trip via
  the crowbar OV protection circuit.
