The Wacker Neuson Upper Pole Receptacle is a genuine OEM component designed for the LB1 Light Balloon (US 120V) and LBA1 Light Balloon series. As a direct OEM replacement, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring correct electrical interface and mechanical fit within the pole assembly. This receptacle is confirmed to fit the LB1 (model ) and LBA1 (model ) Light Balloon units, making it the straightforward choice when restoring your light balloon to full working condition.
Key Features
- Correct Electrical Specification: — Built to OEM output and connector spec, ensuring the upper pole receptacle carries power safely and consistently to the balloon lamp head.
- Direct Pole Assembly Fit: — Designed to seat and connect within the upper pole section exactly as the original, with no reworking of the pole housing needed.
- Verified LB1 and LBA1 Compatibility: — Confirmed fitment for the LB1 Light Balloon (US 120V) and LBA1 Light Balloon series, so you can order with confidence.
- Sustained Illumination Performance: — A sound upper pole receptacle maintains a stable power connection to the lamp; a failed or corroded receptacle causes flickering, loss of light output, or complete lamp failure on the worksite.
- Electrical Safety Assurance: — As a powered connection point on a portable lighting unit, using the correct OEM-spec receptacle helps maintain safe, code-compliant operation of the 120V light balloon system.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part: — Sourced directly through authorized Wacker Neuson distribution channels, carrying part number 5000179749 for straightforward cross-referencing against your parts list or service manual.
The upper pole receptacle is the electrical connection point located at the top section of the light balloon's support pole. It receives and transfers power from the pole wiring to the lamp assembly above, allowing the balloon light to illuminate at full intensity. When this receptacle becomes damaged, corroded, or worn, the electrical connection degrades — resulting in intermittent light output, overheating at the connection point, or complete loss of illumination, which is why prompt replacement with a correct OEM part matters on any active work site.
