Thanks everyone for their help on this! Had to get someone in in the end! Turns out both the fuse near the boiler and the mcb had blown so had to them replaced on Monday!

I've tried that, no luck, the plug in the socket is a shower pump that i had installed last year! For some reason that's the only socket working fine! Socket must be connected straight down to the mains!

Nope sockets on first floor not working! I did try have a look, but can't tell if I've gone through a wire! I thought I was well awar from the cables, unless they turn in the wall! Boiler not firing up at all, no power to it whatsoever!

Here's what's tripping! Guessing the boiler must be somehow linked to the 1st floor sockets! Also attached a picture of the boiler cabinet and some other wiring that's in there!

Cheers Andy, tried but problem Is i can't get any power to the boiler as mains switch keeps tripping

Cut the wires too short to fit the old one back! Thanks for your help anyway!

Possible, might have to get someone in to test it! Tho can't get the boiler to turn on at all!

Did initially, also tried without connecting, same result!

Cheers rocky, I've tried that but still it still triggers the mains for some reason! Can't get any power on the boiler or the main thermostat next to it!

Hi, trying to replace an old thermostat and can't figure out the correct wiring. I've tried different combinations but I always seem to trigger the mains switch! I've attached a picture i took of the old one before removing it! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Hi all, Just another quick question from me, does anyone know if this dimmer https://www.toolstation.com/search?q=80365 would work with the led's in the picture? Would have 8 led's in the room! Thanks again

Just an update for everyone, i purchased the https://www.screwfix.com/p/varilight-v-pro-1-gang-2-way-led-dimmer-switch-white/94816 and swapped the cables as suggested, and they are now working! A massive thank you to everyone on here for their help!

Superstar mate, i'll try switching the wire and see if that works, if not i'll try a different dimmer switch! I'll report back here in case anyone else has the same issue! Thanks for taking your time and drawing all the wiring for me!

Thanks mate, here's the 2nd switch! 2nd switch is just a regular one, not dimmable! It works fine as currently wired!
