167657 - Miller 15A 125V Straight Blade Receptacle NEMA 5-15R

Genuine Miller 167657 Receptacle Overview

The Miller 167657 is a high-quality replacement receptacle designed specifically for Miller welding power sources and generators. As an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) component, it guarantees compatibility with specific Miller machines that require a standard 120V auxiliary power outlet. This receptacle features a NEMA 5-15R configuration, which is the standard 3-prong household style outlet used in North America, allowing operators to plug in common power tools, lights, and grinders directly to their welding machine.

Technically, this unit is a straight blade, grounding receptacle rated for 15 Amperes and 125 Volts. It utilizes a 2-Pole, 3-Wire (2P3W) wiring configuration, ensuring a proper ground connection for safety in industrial environments. The rectangular design fits standard panel cutouts found on many Miller Bobcat, Trailblazer, and other engine-driven welder generators. Maintaining the integrity of your machine's auxiliary power outlets is critical for job site efficiency, as these outlets often power the secondary tools required to finish a weld or prepare a joint.

Constructed to withstand the vibration and harsh conditions typical of welding environments, this receptacle offers durability superior to standard residential-grade outlets. When replacing electrical components on your welder, using genuine Miller parts like the 167657 ensures that the electrical ratings match the machine's output capabilities and internal wiring harness, preventing overheating or electrical faults.
