FIELD: engines and pumps.
SUBSTANCE: proposed device comprises voltage generator 5 and ignition unit 9 including ignition plug 4 and switch 7 arranged between plug feed terminal and generator output. Switch 7 allows connecting voltage generator output with said ignition plug 4 in response to command signal VI. Device comprises electronic control unit UC to generate said command signal VI. Said electronic control unit UC comprises means M to measure magnitudes characterising generator output voltage variations in time and device A to vary current voltage and/or frequency depending upon magnitudes set by said measuring means. Generator output voltage variation describes health of ignition plug (new or worn-out).
EFFECT: control over quality of plug spark.
