EMPI 40" Safety Lead Wire | 193057-100 Replacement Lead Wire, Each
Category: TENS Lead Wires
The EMPI 40" Safety Lead Wire from Balego is a replacement electrotherapy cable for compatible legacy EMPI TENS and stimulation devices. Balego lists this lead wire for EMPI Focus, Respond Select, EPIX VT, and EPIX XL units, making it a useful replacement when the original cord is missing, damaged, loose, or causing intermittent stimulation.
This product is sold individually, not as a pair. Customers replacing both channels may need to order more than one lead wire.
For a complete EMPI device option, compare the EMPI® Select™ TENS Pain Control Unit. For replacement pads, pair compatible lead wires with Balego® TENS/NMES/FES Electrodes, Starburst Electrodes, or the full Electrotherapy Electrodes category.

Why Lead-Wire Compatibility Matters
Lead wires are simple-looking accessories, but small connector differences determine whether they work. The device-side plug, electrode-side connection, wire length, and safety connector design must match the device and electrode pads.
| Compatibility Factor | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Device-side connector | The plug must fit the EMPI unit securely |
| Electrode-side pins | The electrode pads must match the wire ends |
| Length | 40" provides reach without excessive loose cable |
| Safety connection style | Helps prevent accidental mismatch or exposed connection issues |
| Sold individually | Dual-channel devices may require two lead wires |
| Device model | EMPI Focus, Respond Select, EPIX VT, and EPIX XL are Balego’s primary listed fits |
| Electrode style | Pads must connect securely to the wire pins |
For additional connector education, use Balego’s TENS/NMES Electrode Connector Guide.
When Should You Replace an EMPI Lead Wire?
| Symptom | Possible Cause |
|---|---|
| Stimulation cuts in and out | Internal wire break, worn connector, or loose electrode connection |
| One channel works but the other does not | Lead wire, electrode pad, or device channel issue |
| Output changes when the cord moves | Intermittent lead-wire connection |
| Visible cracks, frays, or exposed wire | Lead wire should be replaced |
| Bent or dirty electrode pins | Clean or replace depending on the condition. |
| Weak stimulation despite good settings | Old electrodes, poor skin contact, or worn lead wire |
| The device shows a connection or open-load warning | Check pads first, then lead wires |
| The wire is missing | Replace with the correct model-specific wire |
Lead Wire or Electrode Pad: Which Is the Problem?
Before assuming the device is defective, test the parts that wear out first: the lead wires and the electrodes.
| Problem | First Check | Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| No stimulation | Confirm device is on and intensity is increased | Check lead-wire connection |
| Weak output | Replace old or dry electrode pads | Retest with the same lead wire |
| Sharp or prickly sensation | Check pad adhesion and gel condition | Replace electrodes |
| Stimulation cuts in and out | Gently move the lead wire | Replace the wire if output changes |
| One side does not work | Swap wires and pads side to side | See whether the issue follows the wire |
| Pads do not stick | Replace electrodes | Do not keep raising intensity to compensate |
| New pads still do not work | Try a known-good lead wire | The device channel may need evaluation |

| Dry completely before storage | Reduces moisture-related wear |
| Avoid tight wrapping | Helps prevent internal wire breaks |
| Store loosely in the device case | Reduces tangling and kinking |
| Keep away from pets and sharp objects | Prevents cuts, chewing, and damage |
| Replace cracked or frayed wires | Damaged wires can cause unreliable stimulation |
| Test with fresh electrode pads | Helps separate pad problems from cable problems |
Compatibility Checklist Before Ordering
| Question | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| What EMPI device model do you have? | Focus, Respond Select, EPIX VT, EPIX XL, or another EMPI model |
| What part number are you replacing? | Match 193057-100 or LW193057-100 when possible |
| How many wires do you need? | This product is sold individually |
| Does your device have one or two channels? | Dual-channel users may need two lead wires |
| What electrode connector do your pads use? | Pads must match the lead-wire pins |
| Are the pads also worn out? | Replace pads if adhesion or gel contact is poor |
| Is the unit non-EMPI? | Compare Balego® 45" Safety Rotating Lead Wire Pair instead |
| Still unsure? | Use Contact Balego for compatibility help |
Product Description
The EMPI 40" Safety Lead Wire is a replacement lead wire for compatible legacy EMPI electrotherapy devices. Balego lists this wire for EMPI Focus, Respond Select, EPIX VT, and EPIX XL units. It is commonly searched by the part number 193057-100 or LW193057-100 and is sold individually.
Lead wires are common wear items on portable TENS and stimulation devices. If stimulation cuts in and out, one channel stops working, output changes when the cord is moved, or the cable is visibly cracked or frayed, replacing the lead wire may restore a more reliable connection. Customers should also inspect electrode pads because old, dry, or poorly adhered pads can mimic lead-wire problems.
Choose this EMPI 40" Safety Lead Wire when you need a model-specific replacement for compatible EMPI devices. For a broader standard lead-wire pair, compare the Balego® 45" Safety Rotating Lead Wire Pair. For Continuum-specific replacement wiring, compare Continuum Lead Wires. For replacement pads, compare Balego® TENS/NMES/FES Electrodes and Starburst Electrodes.
