I´ve had the same problem!
Last year it happened to me, the alternator regulator shorted and pumped out high voltage, resulting in welded relays, blown diodes and other nasties.

Let me try...
Say that you have a single lightbulb connected to the battery. Over the battery poles is the alternator. A 100 W bulb will draw 100/12 =8 amps, and the resistance of the bulb is 12/8 =1,5 ohms.
