It has a sickle shaped heating section with an Incoloy sheath, and it fixes to the tank with a bolted flange rather than screwing in. Before ordering, check that your old element is a bolt-on type and that the wattage on its marking or on the heater's data plate is 2400W.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNo hot water or tripping power? Signs of a failed element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe element sits inside the tank and heats the water whenever the thermostat calls for it. Over the years, mineral build up and corrosion attack the sheath until it breaks down. A failed element usually shows up as no hot water at all, water that never gets properly hot, or a safety switch that trips when the heater switches on. An open circuit or a short to earth on an element test confirms it. Because a dead thermostat gives similar symptoms, a licensed electrician will normally test both before replacing anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number 1329XSN, generic replacement element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2400W rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on flange mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSickle shaped heating section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncoloy sheath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2400W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMounting\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBolt-on flange\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSickle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSheath\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncoloy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing a bolt-on element\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChanging a hot water element is hard-wired work for a licensed electrician, and draining and refilling may need a licensed plumber. Isolate the power at the switchboard and turn off the cold water supply. Drain the tank below the element, swap it over with a sound gasket, then refill fully and bleed the air out through a hot tap before restoring power. Never power up an element in an empty tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I know if my element is bolt-on?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bolt-on element is held to the tank by a flange with several bolts or nuts around it, while a screw-in element has one large threaded boss.
