Ground power unit operation.

GROUND POWER MAIN PARTES;

Alternator ………………Engine ………………..Control panel………………..Electrical box
………….Chassis &Canopy

Alternator coupled to the engine the engine`s mechanical movement is transformed in

to electrical energy this unit thus constructed is controlled and Monitored by electrical
and electronic equipment.

Data transmission from the engine to the electrical box and the revers.

Two AC outputs electrical cable 115/200 volt -400HZ three phase.

The assembly is mounted on a trailer chassis so it can be moved around the canopy is
providing protection from the outside as well as sound insulation.

The operator controls the groin unit via the controlled paneled.

The GPU`S function is supply electrical power to the air craft on the ground ,by
producing a three phase alternative current.

BASIC PRINCIPEL.
The 115/200 Volt –400HZ power produced by the alternator which is driven by the
diesel engine. the different on board electronics located inside the electrical box are
controlling and monitoring the power the generation ,as well as the GPU over all
operation.
