Smart Alternator or not...Help

[Wholesouled]

Hi

Im hopeing i can get some help here after reading other posts on the same topic. I have a 2016 ford transit custom which i belive is a Euro 5 going by my hpi check. I have done an voltage check before and after when the van is running and it reads 14.5 consistantly before and after. From what inresd this should mean its not a smart version . However the attached photo is the battery and from a youtube video it tells me this is a smart shunt attached.

Im well confused - i have a split charger relay fitted as i thought it was a traditional alternator but now im not so sure.

Help appreciated or any other way to confirm for sure?

Mine is a 2014 euro 5, and I have a VSR as well and my leisure battery has been charged effectively fine for the past 4 years that I have had the van, so I don't know if it has a smart alternator but if it does it hasn't caused me no problems whatsoever.

Thanks.

I did think mine was working ok but has now started to fail after 2 month. I found a you tube video and they point out the black plastic moduel on the negatie terminal is the sign of a smart alternator, however the voltage check with a multi meter dosnt match .

Thanks for input
