The Miller 247831080 is a specialized 11-conductor extension cable designed to bridge the gap between advanced wire feeders and industrial power sources. Measuring 80 feet in length, this cable is engineered to provide substantial reach in large fabrication environments, shipyards, and manufacturing plants where the power source must remain stationary while the operator moves freely. Unlike standard control cables that may only support basic contactor and voltage control, this 11-conductor variant is built to handle complex signal transmission required for modern, high-performance welding operations.
This cable is specifically optimized for use with Miller's XR-Alumafeed, MPa Plus feeders, and 60M feeders. It utilizes industry-standard 14-pin connectors but populates 11 of those pins to support a broader range of functionalities. When connected to compatible Miller electronic CV 14-pin power sources, it ensures reliable contactor engagement and remote voltage control. However, its true value is unlocked when paired with advanced power sources such as the Invision MPa or XMT MPa series. In these configurations, the additional conductors facilitate sophisticated communication protocols necessary for Synergic Pulsed MIG welding, allowing the power source and feeder to synchronize perfectly for optimal arc performance.
Beyond basic welding parameters, the Miller 247831080 supports remote process selection and side-select capabilities. This is particularly critical in dual-feeder setups or multi-process environments where operators need to switch modes without returning to the power source. The cable is constructed with a durable, abrasion-resistant jacket designed to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial use, ensuring that the 24 VAC control signals remain interference-free and reliable even across the full 80-foot span. By investing in the correct 11-conductor extension, facilities ensure they are not artificially limiting the capabilities of their high-end welding equipment due to connectivity constraints.
Whether you are welding aluminum with an XR-Alumafeed or running heavy steel fabrication with an MPa Plus system, this extension cable is the vital link that maintains system integrity. It eliminates the need to move heavy power sources, improving shop safety and efficiency while maintaining full digital control over the welding arc.
