Hi
I have a very old electro mechanical boiler switch that says Potterton on the outside but the clock mechanism says Horstman and it is stamped a "Q Mk 3"
It has stopped rotating so the boiler HW and CH have to be switched on manually.
I'd like to replace it so I'd really like suggestions on what 7 day/separate HW/CH timer would be suitable and what the current wiring means.
I see the mains supply in.
I also see the mains earth and supply out to the boiler but there are two wires (presumably HW & CH controls) which are connected to screws 8 & 10.
I'd like to know where these should be connected to on a new timer?
Plus anything else you think I should know!
Many, many thanks in advance
Tim
