Testing Diode 700 1989

This might seem a trivial point to some but with regards to testing the diode in the alternator quoting the FAQ

"Another way to check the integrity of the diodes on a Bosch regulator is to check the voltage readings at the D+ terminal and B+ terminal. The voltage reading should be the same at both terminals. A difference of more than one volt would indicate faulty diodes and the need to replace the regulator. "

Where exactly should I put my black and red Voltmeter leads at to measure the voltage readings? I don't know much bout automotive electricals. Thanks

Aslan
