I asked Suburban what the new element Part Number is that caused them to not drill a hole in their current switch and not use the sping poin anymore.
520900
Supposedly this new element will last up to 10 minutes before it burns out when the water heater is empty and power turned on.
I have since learned that this part number 520900 Suburban Element is used on all Suburban Water heaters built since 2011. My Water Heater Model number is SW10DE and at the present time it appears that one of the correct replacement element part Numbers is 520789. It is not the improved longer lasting one but a whole lot less expensive.
Here are the numbers of the part that was in the original Water He4ater:
SG-1143
232390-2
LO24V
120V
1440W
