Looking at the alternator male socket with the key at the top, connect the left hand pin (2), which is the pilot wire sensing voltage for the voltage regulator, to the battery via a relatively small gauge wire and preferably a 5 amp fuse. Otherwise to any fused circuit with a short connection to the battery, which will NOT involve a voltage drop.
The right hand pin (1) provides a signal for a trouble lamp and completes a circuit to ground, only when the alternator is charging.
Plug connections have been taken from the manual, which I trust is correct. If you have the original loom as a reference, the wires to the battery should be coloured white.

okay, so this guy obviously knows more about this than I do
. Now I have a question. how do you wire pin (1) correctly?
