Ground Power Unit, or GPU for short, is the name given to power supply equipment that provides clean power for both maintenance and engine starting aircraft that are on the ground. A GPU, much unlike your average household power supply, is unique in that it provides a very specific “ripple free” or “clean” voltage, this ensures sensitive avionics and control systems within the Aircraft are protected during powered maintenance and engine starting operations.
START PAC® engineers have developed an extensive range of Aircraft Ground Power Units designed to meet all manner of end use scenarios, from providing reliable mobile ground power for remote airstrips through to powerful hybrid solutions for fully high throughput Aircraft Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul operations. All START PAC® Ground Power Units are made in-house and combine quality components, unparalleled after sales support and a 1 year warranty as standard.
