Can Bullet Terminals Be Placed on Heating Element for Camco Propane to Electricity Converter

Question:
Can you modify the red covered wires that run to the heater cartridge that is screwed into the water heater tank? I want to do this so I can disconnect the wires to allow removal of the heater cartridge in the fall. This would allow the heater to drain. I was thinking of using bullet connectors rated for 24 amps on the wires.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you could place bullet style electrical quick disconnects on the heating element that comes with the Camco Propane to Electricity Converter for 6-Gallon RV Water Heaters part # CAM11673. That said, you'd need to make sure the terminals are rated appropriately for the wattage and wire size used on the element. I recommend the Deka Wiring Snap Plug part # DW05712-1 and Deka Wiring Snap Plug Receptacle part # DW05729-1. It's a 425 watt heating element so at most you're looking under 4 amps.
