A mobile 400Hz ground power unit that supplies electrical power to a parked aircraft so its engines and APU can be shut down at the gate.
A mobile 400Hz ground power unit that supplies electrical power to a parked aircraft so its engines and APU can be shut down at the gate. The unit shown is a TLD-make 'TLD Green' dual-power GPU; GSE Support India supplies and leases this unit rather than manufacturing it. A GPU lets a handler power the aircraft without burning APU fuel, cutting fuel cost, emissions and APU wear during ground time. Every gate or remote stand servicing a parked aircraft needs reliable 400Hz power.
