Default Generator Charging

I have a 29 ford pickup since the early 70,s. I recently changed it to 12 volt negative ground. After a while I noticed the generator was charging at over 10 amps during the day. It was as charging at 5 amps prior to the voltage change. I reduced the charge to 5 amps at 12 volts. I am unsure why there was a change. The only thing I can think of is the larger 6 volt wiring has less resistance. Are there any electrical guru's that have a reason for the increased amps. Just wondering. Larry
