Description
Product Introduction
GE 354A1513P011 is a flexible ignition lead assembly used on GE heavy-duty gas turbines. It carries the high-voltage pulse from the ignition exciter to the spark plug or igniter inside the combustor.
The copper-conductor design with high-temperature insulation withstands the heat and vibration of continuous turbine operation. This part number belongs to the established 354A1513 series and remains a direct replacement for matching turbine configurations when new-surplus stock is available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this lead support hot-swapping or online replacement?
A: No. Ignition system work requires the turbine to be shut down and locked out. High voltage is present during operation; never attempt replacement with the unit running or energized.
Q: Is the part obsolete? Are there direct replacements?
A: Many 354A1513 series leads are legacy. Cross-references such as Unison 9059129-144 are commonly accepted equivalents. Always confirm exact length, terminations, and turbine model before substitution. Later turbine revisions may use updated lead designs.
Q: Will replacing the lead affect ignition timing or control logic?
A: No. The lead is a passive high-voltage conductor. Timing and energy delivery are controlled by the exciter and turbine control system. After installation, verify spark quality and continuity only.
Q: Are these factory-new or refurbished?
A: Units supplied as new original (new surplus) undergo inbound origin and serial verification, visual inspection for insulation damage or corrosion, continuity and insulation-resistance testing, and anti-static packaging. They are tested to ensure proper functionality.
