Just looking at my boiler wiring out of interest, and just wondering if it's wired correctly.
So perma lives, neutrals and earths in the right place, but i can't figure out the switch lives to the controller.
If i follow the circuit it seems like the earth of the 4 core is acting as some sort of live to the controller even though the perma live is already there. If i volt stick it, the earth is live at both ends at all times, the black is showing 50v amperage only sometimes and then dead others.
From the wiring diagram i would have assumed the 4 core would go to the switch as L N E and the black would act as the sole switch wire.
What am i missing?
(Ps thanks for your help - i'm trying to get more into the domestic side of stuff having grown sick of site work so this is my first foray into stuff like boilers.)
PPS the controller is not a stat, it's just on/off. Timer/temp etc is built onto the boiler.
