the Overload devices are rated for different currents and usually have such numbers on them

other than that, it's mostly the Manufacturer part number that will cross-reference to the same part.

GE parts are sometimes 3x the cost of other Manufacturers , even when the machine is actually made by Frigidaire, etc ..
