It used to be common for central heating controllers and switches to be placed in airing cupboards within bathrooms. I this permissible under current regs?
In years gone by there was often a three pin socket as well.
I was just wandering if anybody can help me. The controller to the combi has gone missing during a refurb all that is left is a 4c cable and the backplate. My question is that all the central heating controllers you see eg:siemens, honeywell ect will these be suitable or do i need to get a...

Hello, Im an apprentice and I've been set the task of doing a bit of research on central heating systems. I think I have a fairly basic knowledge of how they work and how to wire one up. However, I was hoping to gain a bit of an understanding about how some of the individual components work...
Hi all, I've just spent most of my Sunday trying to answer this question: what bonding is required for a gas central heating system where some pipes are under the suspended timber floor? I have to consider this in connection with a consumer unit change, the gas and water main bonding is in 10mm...
Hello,
I have a hot water cylinder with an immersion heater which (as far as I can tell without looking further) is on it's own dedicated circuit. I'm not at home right now so can't look up the circuit breaker rating (I'll look this evening).

I would like some pointers please of where I can look up the required wiring.
Thanks.
