Bravo Ben! Well explained and demonstrated. Something worth a mention is a lot of Oil fired Boilers like the Worcester Danesmoor range will happily run a circulating pump off the switch live from the controls as shown in this video. Most Heat Only Gas fired Boilers require the circulating pump wired direct to the Boiler. This is so that the Boiler can control it to dissipate heat when burner has finished firing or demand for heat has ceased. Commonly known as an over-run facility.
@@toolboxtalkingmake sure you’re not breaking any primary chamber seals when you remove the boiler cover to wire it. A lot of Gas Boiler front covers are part of the Flue system and require an integrity test 😉
@@toolboxtalkingdoesn’t as matter as much on an Oiler. An estate I look after had their electrical contractor go around fitting Nest stats (apparently we were too expensive 😂). Their external Compliance guy went around a month later and found a load of cases with primary seals not fitted correctly. I’d certified them all a month prior to the stats being fitted and got RIDDOR’d as a result. A HSE interview is not a pleasant experience let me tell ya. Fortunately Im smart enough to take pictures of all my Boilers/Flues and the state they are left in. Electrical contractors got a huge fine (5 figures) as a result because to remove Boiler covers in alot of cases you’re classified as working on the Flue system and for that you need to be Gas Safe registered.
Good video, very well explained now about the next one will be about 3 zone valve with 3 separate zone pump with Relay to stop a backfeed 😂 I always get confused on bigger system with relays. 😅
@christopherbeevor9315 Well I talking about Radiator system not UFH 😅 When you have a big house with 4 or 5 zone and distance massive we stick pump after a zone valve, before that have a low loss with shunt pump only. That is a funny a wiring. 😅
@@CsöszakiHoszivattyuNow you’re talking my language. Commercial Heating engineer for 15 years my friend. I work on 40/50 Zone systems running BMS/Trend panels 😉
@christopherbeevor9315 Thats the one my friend. Same here, but changed to these high end houses ( somehow the boss get these jobs). Absolutely a nightmare sometimes. 😳 So you defo understand what I mean being confused sometimes😅
Great video but you left out the underfloor heating in your wiring diagram and then when you energisesed all your zones one by one you had the underfloor heating up and running . Would have loved to see how that was wired up ( underfloor )
A bit confusing, said red is permanent live then started using black as the perm, but black is actually grey and red is actually brown, but they're both perms?? 🤯
Great video for someone with little experience in this area.
Glad it was helpful!
Good explaination Ben. Really helpful.
Side note. Camera flicker when you were using the wipe board.
Yeah, I need to change the resolution next time. Too many settings to play with 👍

100% that my friend is another whole new video ❤

@@christopherbeevor9315 the boiler guy left the cable out for me to connect. I think they tested it on a plug

Or get your client to buy a decent u/floor setup with its own Control Module that only requires a LNE and SW/L 😂
