From your description it seems the white wire is a neutral and may be required for the controls. Typically the black and red wires provide 240v power to the heater. I've never seen a water heater with a 4th wire but ranges very often have a neutral because accessories such as lights and the timer run only on 120v.

It may also be that you can connect the water heater to more than one voltage. I wouldn't know without looking at it or the paperwork. You need a competent electrician to look at it for you.

The white wire is typically used as a neutral wire. In an RV installation, the white wire can be connected to the green wire to the ground or chassis of the RV, as RV electrical systems may not have a traditional neutral wire. It's always recommended to consult the installation manual or a professional electrician for guidance on connecting the wires safely and correctly.

What are the car stero wiring color codes for a Pioneer KEH-1700?

I stumbled upon this page earlier today when I was looking for the answer myself. I ended up calling Pioneer themselves and they provided me with the answer. It is as follows: Black - Ground Blue - Power Antenna / Control for an AMP Orange - Constant 12 Volts Red - 12 Volts when the ignition is on, 0 Volts when it's off [Speakers] [Front] Gray - Front Right Positive Gray Black - Front Right Negative Green - Front Left Positive Green Black - Front Left Negative [Rear] Gray Red - Right Rear Positive Black Gray - Right Rear Negative Green red - Left Rear Positive Black Green - Left Rear Negative The difference between Green Black and Black Green is Green Black is mostly green with a black stripe and Black Green is mostly black with a green stripe.
