Vinegar run for new electric heating element?

Hej distillers.
The vinegar run and sac run are established safty measures before putting new still components in contact with products we aim to consume. Does this also apply for new electric immersion heaters? I assume so but still wanted to ask.
And while I am at it, why do we do the we do a run with vinegar? Is it the acid we are after? Why then vinegar? Is it the affordability of vinegar that made it the chosen acid or does vinegar possess something else that makes it the prime candidate?
