Part WB2X8228 Burner Receptacle
Purpose
Connects surface element to power supply
Details
The WB2X8228 burner receptacle is a genuine OEM electrical socket designed for GE electric ranges and ovens with coil-style surface elements. This component serves as the connection point where the surface heating element plugs into the cooktop wiring harness, delivering the electrical current required for the burner to heat properly. Over time, the receptacle may become worn, loose, or heat-damaged, especially if the burner element has sparked, overheated, or melted the terminal block. Replacing a damaged receptacle restores a secure electrical connection and helps ensure reliable heating performance for the cooktop burner.
