Milwaukee 120V 15A Overload Protector
Model Number: 22-36-0161
The Milwaukee 22-36-0161 is a genuine OEM 120V 15A Overload Protector for use in compatible Milwaukee corded tools. The overload protector is the thermal or current-sensing protective device that monitors the current draw of the tool's motor during operation — automatically interrupting the circuit when sustained overload current exceeds the rated 15A threshold to protect the motor windings from heat damage caused by excessive current draw during stalled or heavily loaded operation. Unlike a fuse, the overload protector can be reset after the motor cools, restoring the tool to service without replacing the component. A failed overload protector that trips immediately at normal operating current, fails to reset, or no longer provides overload protection requires replacement to restore correct motor protection on the 120V tool it serves.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM 120V 15A overload protector ensures the correct trip current and thermal specification for the motor circuit it protects. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct protector for your specific unit.
