3000 watt 240v water heater element.

Copper sheathed zinc plated elements ahelp minimize galvanization that can limit service life while nickel based alloy sheath water heater elements are suited for areas with extremely hard water and high sulfur and lime content. Threads are designed for a 1 1 4 hole. Water heater elements keep electric water heaters in good repair. A typical value for a 220 vac hot water heater would be an element rating of 3500 watts.

Low density water heater elements use less watts of energy per square inch so they are made longer in length to make up the watts rating of the element. An electrical formula is used to find the amount of amperage used by this size of heating element. In 120v connection the 3000 watts heating element draws 25a current so 8 gauge wires for neutral and line has been used with a 30a breaker or fuse.
