The Wacker Neuson Power Cable is a genuine OEM component designed for the E5000 Ground Heater and CH5000 Cross Heater series. This is a direct-from-manufacturer replacement, meaning it meets the exact electrical specifications required by the original machine design. The is compatible across multiple E5000 configurations — including gas burner, diesel burner, and 12kW generator diesel variants — as well as CH5000 oil burner and generator/oil burner models.
Key Features
- Correct Electrical Specification: — Manufactured to the exact conductor rating and connector spec of the original Wacker Neuson power cable, ensuring proper current delivery without voltage drop or connection issues.
- Genuine OEM Part: — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this cable carries the same part number (5000173254) used in factory assembly, so you know it connects and seats exactly as the original did.
- Broad E5000 and CH5000 Coverage: — Fits gas burner, diesel burner, and 12kW generator diesel E5000 Ground Heater variants, plus CH5000 Cross Heaters with oil burner and generator/oil burner configurations.
- Restored Heating Performance: — A damaged or degraded power cable can interrupt the heater's ability to ignite or sustain operation; replacing it restores consistent, uninterrupted heat output on cold-weather job sites.
- Electrical Safety Compliance: — Power cables in heating equipment carry high current loads in demanding conditions; using a genuine OEM replacement ensures the cable meets the original insulation and load-bearing standards, reducing the risk of electrical faults.
The power cable in the E5000 Ground Heater and CH5000 Cross Heater is responsible for delivering electrical current to the burner ignition and control systems. Without a properly functioning cable, the heater may fail to ignite, lose power intermittently, or trip safety circuits — leaving crews without heat when ground thawing or frost protection is critical. Replacing a worn or damaged cable with the correct OEM part restores the electrical integrity of the system and ensures the heater operates as intended.
