Very little info about the alt, however in most cases you can simply tie it out of the way and disregard it. Most likely it is the "sense" wire. If the new wiring scheme does not support the three wire hookup just don't use it but insulate it because the sense wire has voltage, tape it or heatshrink it and tuck it out of the way.
