10.4 Electrical Cartridge Securing

Fit electrical cartridge into the interface housing on completion

of the wiring, see diagram 10.4.

Secure with the two cartridge retaining screws provided in the

cartridge body.

10.5 Electrical Connections - Testing

Carry out preliminary electrical system checks as below:

1. Test insulation resistance to earth of mains cables.

2. Test the earth continuity and short circuit of cables.

3. Test the polarity of the mains.

NOTE: If you require to test the appliance refer to section 13.

11 Commissioning

IMPORTANT: If the appliance is to be left out of operation after

initial commissioning, ensure all system cleansing and inhibition

has been carried out fully and that power is left on to the

appliance. This is to ensure that there is no risk of flammable

gas collecting in the system due to corrosion.

At the time of commissioning, complete all relevant sections of

the Benchmark Checklist located in the inside back pages of

this document.

11.1 Pre-filling the Heating Circuit

Do Not operate the boiler without water.

The commissioning should be carried out by a

competent

person approved at the time by the Health and Safety

Executive and in accordance with the current issue of

BS6798.

Make sure that the system has been thoroughly flushed

out with cold water and that all cleanser if used has been

removed.

With the gas service isolation valve closed, with no demand

from any external controls and the power supply to the boiler

switched off.

Test for gas tightness and purge air from the gas supply.

Refer to diagram 11.1

1. Once the system pipework has been completed it is

possible to pre fill the system before mounting the boiler if

so desired.

2. Ensure that the isolation valves are securely tightened into

the jig blanking plugs, see diagram 11.1.

3. Refer to diagram 11.2 and open the CH isolation valves

‘A’ by using a screwdriver or a 4mm allen key ensuring that

the slot is in line with the axis of the cock (shown closed in

diagram).

NOTE: A manometer kit accessory, part no. 0020016995 is

available to monitor system pressure during filling if required.

This should be attached to the drain point of one of the CH

isolation valves and the drain point opened to enable a reading

of the system pressure to be taken.

Fill the system until a fill pressure of approximately 1.0 bar is

achieved. Vent all air from the system and repeat the filling

procedure until the system is full and all air has been removed.
