Power unit ~136 words

Description

(1) ignition coil

"a" 3-way black connector

Make: DELPHI

Role

The ignition coil is for converting low voltage into high voltage

After convertion, the high voltage supplies the sparking plugs

Function

(1) Control of ignition coil

(2) earth

3 Power supply 12 V

(4) high voltage diode

(5) electromagnetic compatibility filtering device

(6) spark plug

(7) engine earth

The soft iron core channels and concentrates the magnetic flow

The greater and faster the variation in the magnetic flux in the coil, the higher the voltage created

The number of spirals of the primary coil differs from that of the secondary coil

The resulting induced voltage is equal to the ratio of the number of spirals of the primary coil to that of the secondary coil
