Title: Any electricians on here who know about boiler wiring? Post by: magicroundabout on Thursday, January 20, 2011, 22:20:59 basically i've an old Honeywell T6360B Thermastat which has stopped working properly. it would constantly click at 15 deg regardless of how hot the house was.
now i've gone and got me a Drayton RTS1 which i have wired up yet nothing is happening. wires are to the correct terminals but nothing will switch on with the boiler. http://www.draytoncontrols.co.uk/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=10497 my wiring is pretty old. currently got: green/yellow - Earth Black - Nutural Red - Live i've hooked the GY to the earth sigh and the live/nutural to their designated socket. unfortunaitly there is nothing going to 3 (switched live output) which is where i think this is failing. maybe i need a different thermastat?

Title: Re: Any electricians on here who know about boiler wiring? Post by: magicroundabout on Friday, January 21, 2011, 06:35:53 it's only changing the thermostat on the wall which tells the boiler how hot it is. figured it out anyway.
our system is a 2 wire and i've purchased a 3 wire thermostat. hence why it's not working. back to B&Q i go and i've not blown myself or the house up.....................................YET!!! |
