Got it

Got it

But I'm not buying a new boiler if it's wrong

 

[theboyroberts]

Just heading out folks - really appreciate the help.

I'll make the change when I get back at about 7:30pm and will report back.

Thanks again!

This assumes that all the wiring centre power is coming from the same supply circuit as the boiler.
That is the proper and most likely arrangement.

But if you get issues with an rcd tripping (not MCB) then that would point to them being on different circuits from the consumer unit, which would need to be corrected.

They are on the same circuit - checked this when I flipped the RCD during testing last night.

Will report back later folks

I believe i understand this now

The black wire which enters to the bottom of the Room STAT/Timer block link is carrying power which is carried over through the link into the red wire leaving the bottom and activates the demand for central heating. Hence the boiler firing constantly.

By removing the link and placing the black wire in the 4th position (counting from the earth as number 1) as soon as the thermostats activate, power travels down the black wire and the demand for central heating fires the boiler.

Is my understanding correct?

Edit correct

To be sure to be sure, remove the link and check for power at terminal 4 (from left)) if 230V there and 0V at termina 3 then black wire goes to terminal 3 .

Terminal (from left) 3 Shaun if terminal 4 is live with link removed?? (post 15).

Sorry just seen instructions yep

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Just like the attached ShaunCorbs?

Without the red link linking live to room stat

Sorted!

All working as expected

Really can’t say thanks enough for all of your help - really amazing bunch of folks here on the forum.

Chuffed to bits!
