(User Info)

44 vac should be 62 vdc after the rectifier, if your battery is connected to the dc side of the rectifier and below 62 volts you should be above cut in and some amps should be flowing.
If you meter is not true rms and the waveform from the alt is not a good sinewave you may be getting an erroneous reading and may not be at cut in yet. Also your shunt may be wired incorrectly.
