By any chance, is the the same way the (stock) shield regenerator works?

First question, yes. All in one turn. It starts repairing during combat. If you have enough organic armor and are facing a weak enemy you can actaully repair all the damage done each combat turn before the next combat turn starts. But any armor comps not repaired at the end of combat get repaired at the end of that game turn at least. I am not sure what happens if you engage in multiple rounds of combat per game turn though. (Edited for clarity)

Shield regenerators are different. First of all, all shield points regenerate at the end of the combat round, unless the shield component itself gets destroyed. A shield regenerator allows you to get a few points back each combat turn instead of having to wait till the end of the combat round. But the shield regenerator only regenarates shield points. It does NOT repair the destroyed shield components. If the comps are destroyed the points are gone until you take a trip to a repair bay or space yard.
