Description
GE WB17X5095 Range/Cooktop Power Terminal Block Kit – OEM Replacement
The "WB17X5095 Power Terminal Block" is the insulated component located at the back of the range or cooktop where the main electrical supply cord connects to the appliance's internal wiring. It provides three connection posts (Line 1, Neutral, Line 2) to safely distribute power. If the terminal block is visibly melted, cracked, or corroded—often due to loose connections or electrical surges—this kit provides a complete replacement, including the necessary mounting screws and wire nuts for a safe and secure connection.
