0707071033 - ESAB Replacement GFCI Receptacle 0707071033

Technical Overview of the ESAB 0707071033 GFCI Socket

The ESAB 0707071033 is a specialized Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) socket designed as a direct replacement for specific ESAB welding power sources and engine-driven welders. In industrial environments, the integrity of auxiliary power outlets is critical not only for the operation of secondary tools—such as grinders, drills, and lights—but also for the safety of the operator. This component is engineered to meet strict electrical standards, providing reliable interruption of the circuit in the event of a ground fault, thereby preventing potential electrical shocks.

As a genuine OEM part, this socket ensures seamless integration with the machine's existing wiring harness and faceplate enclosure. Unlike generic hardware store receptacles, the ESAB 0707071033 is built to withstand the vibration, dust, and thermal fluctuations common in welding environments. It features standard Test and Reset functionality, allowing operators to verify protection status before connecting tools. Maintaining functional GFCI outlets on welding equipment is often a mandatory requirement for OSHA compliance and site safety regulations.

Installation of this component restores the full utility of the welding machine's generator or auxiliary power capabilities. It is rated for standard voltage applications typically found on North American welding equipment. Professionals responsible for the maintenance and repair (MRO) of welding fleets should utilize this specific SKU to guarantee that the replacement part matches the durability and specifications of the original factory-installed outlet.
