alternator problem

Got my alternator reconditioned a few weeks back and it went again last week. So pulled it out again and they said it was a broken wire and sorted it again. Its back in the car and charging at 14.2 but when i give it a good rev or floor it when driving the workshops coming back on. Completely baffled.
