Your original SW6DE (D = Direct Spark Ignition meaning gas) and (E = Electric Element) has an electric element on it. The switch for the Electric Element on a DE water heater is located on the water heater itself, lower left corner just under the gas valve. Suburban does make a model called the SW6DEL, same thing but the “L” stands for the word “Relay”. This model has a 12 volt relay located inside the AC junction box. It allows the operator to use A DIFFERENT SWITCH inside the camper to control the operation of the Electric Element. I’ve attached information for both the DE and DEL models. Hope this helps explain the difference between water heater models.
