Probably doesn't matter to anyone here but the 5-wire stator (Lucas 47188) used for ET ignitions had four coils in series with a center tap (3 wires). The overall pair was for ignition and the center tap was for the stop light. The other pair was two coils in series and were for the headlight and tail light. There was no rectification or regulation whatever on and of it. The ignition circuit had at least 6vac at idle. The headlight was barely lit at idle. If the headlight was off, the tail light was fine with the headlight on at night you had to be careful about people from behind! At highway speeds you could mostly see where you were going.No pairs were shorted at any time.I don't know if Norton ever used ET ignitions - Triumph and BSA did.
