The Wacker Neuson Plug is a genuine OEM component designed for the E2200 and E3000 ES Hydronic Surface Heater and Ground Heater series. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this plug meets the exact specifications of the original part installed at the factory. It fits a broad range of E2200 configurations — including standard, lift bail, and 3 kW and 5 kW generator variants — as well as E3000 ES Ground Heater and E3000 ES Hydronic Surface Heater units. When a plug fails or becomes damaged, maintaining a correct OEM replacement on hand keeps your heating system operating safely and as intended.
Key Features
- Correct Electrical Rating for Heating System Use — Manufactured to match the original plug's electrical specifications, ensuring a safe and properly rated connection within the E2200 and E3000 ES heating circuits.
- Drop-In OEM Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensions and connector profile as the factory-installed part, so it seats and secures exactly as the original did.
- Broad E2200 and E3000 ES Coverage — Confirmed fitment across multiple E2200 variants (standard, lift bail, 3 kW and 5 kW generator configurations) and E3000 ES Ground Heater and Hydronic Surface Heater models.
- Preserves Heating System Integrity — A correctly functioning plug maintains a secure, weatherproof electrical connection; a damaged or ill-fitting plug can interrupt heater operation or create unsafe conditions in cold-weather job environments.
- Safety-Critical Electrical Connection — On ground and hydronic surface heaters used in enclosed or frost-protection applications, a properly rated plug is essential for safe electrical continuity and operator protection.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Part number 5000168468 is an authentic Wacker Neuson component, ensuring full compatibility and traceability against your equipment's service records.
A plug in a hydronic surface heater or ground heater serves as the primary electrical connection point, allowing power to flow from the supply source into the heater's heating elements and control circuitry. It must maintain a secure, correctly rated connection under the demanding conditions of cold-weather concrete curing and ground thawing operations. When a plug becomes cracked, corroded, or damaged, it can cause intermittent power loss, heater shutdown, or — in a worst case — an unsafe electrical fault, making timely replacement essential for both performance and site safety.
