I waded through the other Y plan threads I could see but couldnt find one that seemed to be asking the exact same thing
Right up front I am what seems to be termed on the forums as a "messer" I guess, nearly 30 years worth of electrical installation and alarms but in the process of trying to learn basic plumbing and heating (NOT gas lol) in my spare time just so you know my level
Anyway, the question is quite simply this. I have a baxi back boiler a Danfoss 3020p controller and a Yplan system where the hot water wont work by itself
The 3020p doesnt have a HW off signal which knackers all the Y plan wiring diagrams I've seen so far.
As I am not getting JUST water or JUST central heating I am assuming that rather than a diverter valve I must have a three position valve in the system and that there must be another signal that can be used instead of a HW off signal
So my first question is a broad one. Based on the information here is this a reasonable fault for a CH novice with reasonable electrical experience to try and cut their teeth on?
Assuming thats a yes my second question would be is it a reasonable assumption that I have a mid position valve based on the heating and water both working together?
And lastly, if that is a reasonable assumption does anyone have any Y plan wiring diagrams that show methods of faking the HW off signal as I only have ones where the controller provides a HW off signal rather than me trying to reverse engineer the entire wiring diagram from the loom
Thank you in advance
