Check your ground connections:  the case of the external Rectifier/Regulator should be grounded.  All external metal surfaces should be grounded.  This avoids accidental shorts, and electrical fires.  Also, the wiring should be done with the Battery removed, to avoid possible electrical fires.  Bad things happen when any battery is shorted...

Once you complete a particular section of the wiring, connect the Battery with a 30 Amp in-line fuse, to prevent excessive current flows, and fires.  This will simplify troubleshooting should a particular section have a problem.  Cheers!
