Afternoon
Just looking for some help / advice re Hive V3 Dual system.
We have a conventional heating system - Boiler, separate HW cylinder and a 3 way valve - a Y plan I believe it's called from reading through lots of threads on here, which have very helpful so far...
We have a single channel Danfloss programmer (103 I think), cylinder has a thermostat on and a room thermostat in the hall (2 wire connection)
I know i've some rewiring to do and I need to bring anther cable to the 'Hive' controller to enable the 2 channel operation for serrate control of when heating and hot water can be 'active'.
Our boiler is connected with 4 core cable to the programmer - L, N, E and a Switched live.
I've looked at the diagrams, think I've got my head round the rewiring I need to do, which isn't helped by half the connections are upstairs in the airing cupboard (and a mess of wires, so going to be sorting these out).
From what i've read, using the image below:
1) The 2 wire connections that run to the room thermostat - these are not required, I just bridge across or could I just connect the white wire from the 3 way valve to HTG on the Hive controller (basically move white wire from 5 to 4 in drag below)?
2) I need to run 2 cables to the Hive controller for HW, first wire to HW On (connected to the cylinder thermostat (1)) and second wire to HW Off (connected to cy thermostat (2) and Grey wire from 3 way valve).
3) I also have a Switched live that runs to / from the boiler (I need to lift some floorboards up, to see where this is connected to in the Airing cupboard) - if my thinking is correct, is this connected to the pump / 3 way valve (orange power) to power them ? This is what I'm a bit unsure about, what do I do with this wire ? Do I connect it to anything or do I leave it as is and send a switched live to (presumably) the power supply to the pump / valve upstairs ?
Edit: found the boiler instructions and it says the SwL goes to the pump
4) The back of the Danfloss programmer also has a 'Common' connection - do I need to do anything with these wires or as i'm looking to re-wire things as above, will these be surplus to requirements and potentially, I could use them for other wires I need to route ? like I said, it's a mess !
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated
Thanks very much
