8.8Making The Electrical Connections

To connect the mains input cable proceed as follows:-

1.

Slacken the facia panel securing screws and lift the

outercase panel so that its securing tabs are clear of

the facia. Remove the panel.

2.

Completely undo the screws securing the facia

panel and hinge it down (Fig. 29).

3.

Remove the control box cover securing screws.

Disengage the barbs on the control box from the

cover. Remove the cover (Fig. 30).

4.

Slacken the cable clamp on the LH side of the

boiler chassis (Fig. 31). 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 can be connected to the external

control as shown. The switched output from the

external control must be connected to terminal 2.

(Figs. 32).

NOTE: If the room thermostat being used incorporates an anticipator it MUST be wired as shown in Fig. 32.

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.

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 an 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.
