Making The Electrical Connections

To connect the mains input cable proceed as follows:-

1. Slacken the facia securing screws and lift the

outercase panel so that its locating tabs are clear of the

facia. Remove the panel.

2. Completely undo the screws securing the facia panel

and hinge it down (Fig. 40).

3. Remove the control box cover securing screws.

Disengage the barbs on the control box from the

cover. Remove the cover (Fig. 41).

4. Slacken the cable clamp on the LH side of the boiler

chassis (Fig. 42). Insert the cable through the clamp and

route it to the terminal block.

5. Slacken the screws in the terminal block, connect

the input cable, and tighten the screws.

6. If an external control is to be connected it can be

done at this point. Run the input cable from the

external control through the second cable clamp on

the boiler chassis. Refer to the instructions supplied

with the control.

7. To connect external control(s) remove the link

between terminals 1 & 2. The 230V supply at terminal

1 must be connected to the external control. The

switched output from the external control must be

connected to terminal 2 (Fig. 43).

NOTE: If the room thermostat being used

incorporates an anticipator it MUST be wired as

shown in Fig. 43

IMPORTANT: The external control MUST be

suitable for 230V switching.

8. Ensure that both mains input and, where fitted,

external control input cables have sufficient slack to

allow the control box to drop down. Tighten the cable

clamp(s) on the boiler chassis.

9. If the optional integral timer is to be used it should

be fitted at this point. Refer to the instructions supplied

with the timer. NOTE: An external frost thermostat

cannot be used with the integral timer.

Preliminary Electrical Checks

1. Prior to commissioning the boiler preliminary

electrical system checks should be carried out.

2. These should be performed using a suitable meter,

and include checks for Ground Continuity,

Resistance to Ground, Short Circuit and Polarity.

IMPORTANT: If an integral timer is fitted to the boiler
an external frost thermostat wired as shown will not
operate correctly. Only external timers may be used in
such installations, as in the diagram.
