Abstract :
AIRCRAFT ground power equipment serves two primary requirements. It makes possible the starting of the airplane´s engines, and it provides electric power to the airplane´s utilization equipment, thus conserving the plane´s own electric system for use during actual flight only. This paper is concerned with the electric equipment used in engine generator sets which provide the source of aircraft ground power.
