Many Thanks Ian, for all your advice and help. my system is now working correctly via the hive. Also thanks to everyone else on this thread.

yeah thats what I thought. so as it stands now, the wiring is correct and I am good to go ( once I have isolated the green/yellow wire :) ) I have not yet switched on the power.

yeah was a combi with a very small cylinder in a bathroom cupboard, the main boiler ( an ideal ) had started to leak even though it was only 5 years old ( only lived here for the last two ) the Hive is dual channel ( 2 green lights ) new boiler is a proper combi. might need to read up on...

it's a Baxi 428 which I believe does use 230v switching.

Hi All, New member with a question. I have gone from a combi with water cylinder to a combi with instant hot water. can I use my Hive from my old set up with my new one if I don't connect the hot water contacts in the receiver? or do I need to buy a single heating only receiver for it? Thanks
