This is my process exactly. When I hook up the water at a camp site, I'm standing by the water heater so I turn on the electric element (after verifying I have water in the tank!). When I remove the water hose from the trailer when leaving a camp site, I'm standing near the water heater so I turn off the electric element switch. No worries.
