I am curious... did you check the water temp (even though you replaced the lower element, it might be the thermostst still telling the element to continue making hot water until it starts generating pressure, not likely though). You say this happens only when power to water heater is activated. The only way that a constant volume of water can increase thus increasing the pressure is through heat. I would suggest checking the water heater thermostst and make sure some contacts are not stuck. Could bethat the element was not faulty at all. just the controls. That is my theory anyway, I'd have to look at this system to make a more accurate determination.
