Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1046814A1] Ignition reel has two distinct reels (6, 7) with no magnetic coupling, with secondary windings (8, 9) coupled to spark plug with diodes (10, 11); and with primary windings (12, 13) are attached to controls (14, 15). During first working phase for build up arc between electrodes of spark plug, controls allow simultaneous supply to reels to reach peak arc voltage between electrode During second working phase, controls supply electrodes alternatively for maintaining arc.
