    It is the power generator. When the engines are running, like in a car power is generated. When they are turned off, to keep on the lights and avionics in the cockpit they run. Since so much electricity is used a battery is not practical for a long time, just as a backup. Not all planes have APUs. Some smaller or older airliners like the 707 do not have one, so they plug in at the airport for power.
