I live in Dover area, site is an easy access, nothing is going to be altered, it's a "simple" swap. No, but I do ask my mechanic if he quotes me 1000£ to replace a shock absorber, asking what part of that quote is the actual part and what is the labour (since it's a 1 hour job). I hope (for...

Hi, I am living in semidetached property (1982 build) with 3 bedrooms (7 rads) and was thinking about replacing my boiler. Current one (valliant ecomax manufactured in 2005) is situated in the loft, all pipes and electrical work are good, so it's a swap in place operation. I have asked for...

Ok, for anyone who will find this topic with google: Once 2 wires (LS and NS) are connected properly, receiver starts to work. Unfortunately it's not possible to use rt500bc with worcester 28i junior because receiver behaviour is inverted compared to original timer. When salus tries to switch on...

Yes, you are right. It's not clear from the angle (I can't confirm it till I get home), but looks like they are indeed Ls and Ns, and they are free. If that's indeed the case, I can reuse them without issues. Thanks again for advises (and patience :P)

Maybe I got you wrong. By "pcb terminal strip" I assumed you were speaking about white plastic strip shown in my pic above, which is on the left. If that's the case, Ls and Ns terminals (which should be 3 and 4th screw from the right based on worcester manual...

Should I add new wires to existing ones or it's safe to remove the old ones?

Yeah, I saw couple of threads about this issue (fq conflict) when doing my research about this unit, hopefully it will not be the case. Thanks for hints, I'll confirm that 3&4 are indeed switching contact, and decide if proceed with installation or replacement (yes, st620wbc is about 15 quid...

Damn, didn't think about voltages, my mistake. So from what you are saying my options would be 1) return it and go with ST620WBC (if I decide to stay with SALUS) 2) Connect L &N terminals directly to receiver's line 1 & 2 (getting them directly from the main pcb, in picture on the left), and...

Hi, I recently moved in a new home where we have a Worcester 28i Junior with an mechanical timer (judging by it's code it's GRASSLIN ELECTRO MECHANICAL 24HR TIMER) which is driving me crazy with ticking. So I thought to replace it with rt500bc. Wiring diagram on the back of the old timer and...
