After critically inspecting the wiring and plug to the alternator and any/all earth connections then I would suspect that the alternator is a dud!

Trace the earth lead from battery to car body. And one between car body and engine/gearbox are the main ones. A thorough visual to ensure all wires and pins are not damaged and then if possible using the wiring diagram continuity check between each end of each cable/wire.
