1-13Change 51-15.TM 55-2835-208-23ABCDEFGMAGNETIC PICKUP.The magnetic pickup provides speed signals to theelectronic sequence unit (ESU) in the aircraft.ELECTRICALHARNESS .A single harness connects all electricalcomponentsof the APU to the Main electrical connector.Connectionto the aircraft electrical systemis through this main electricalconnectorto the harness. Refer to schematic for electrical harnessdetails.IGNITION EXCITER.The ignition exciteris a capacitor-dischargetype.The exciterconverts direct-volts input to a high-potentialalternating voltage for ignition.IGNITION CABLE.The ignition cable connects the ignition system tothe igniter plug.IGNITER PLUG.A shunted-gap type igniter plug provides the igniterfor initial ignition of fuel during start of the APU.THERMOCOUPLE.A single-element, chromel/alumel thermocouple is partofthe electrical harness.The thermocouplesenses exhaust gastemperature (EGT) and provides the signal to the ESU. The outputsignal is used bythe ESU for overtemperature protection, shuttingdown the APU if EGT exceeds safe limits.METER ASSEMBLY.The meter assembly provides accurate tracking of APUoperationalhours and number of starts for purposes of maintenance,
