In the event the Heater Element remained powered (i.e. Heating
Relay contacts stuck closed), the Heater element is equipped with
an overheating protection device. Should the overheat device trip,
the Heater Element (as an assembly) must be replaced.

Temperature Sensor (NTC)
The NTC Temperature Sensor is fitted within Heater Element Seal
and is responsible for measuring the water temperature inside the
appliance. The Sensor is a Negative Thermal Coefficient design
(NTC), as the temperature increases the resistance decreases.
