Description |
An induction coil is an electrical transformer that produces high-voltage pulses from a DC (Direct Current) supply that has low-voltage. In the case of these induction coils for a Model T, the coils increase the low voltage from the magneto (a generator that produces electrical pulses using permanent magnets) to a high voltage for the ignition of the gases in the engine through the spark plug. |
