Some where there should be an fcu with 3a fuse to turn it off. The live is the red wire on the left. The hole spacing is designed to fit a single socket. Depends what you want to plug in really or just make it tidy?

"I've extended the CH pipes to where a cylinder would go" Obviously think about summer time (for example). You need boiler hot water to the cylinder when the heating is off. The return can be combined with the CH return. These days you also need a bypass valve, for when all the motorized...

No, it won't magically switch. You can get external contactors, so I would go with one of them, switched by the signal provided...

A pic of your cu and meter setup will help.

I think they actually use the voltage drop across the triac to power the electronics

They don’t need neutral, but you must use an incandescent lamp. Sadly no battery to charge. The second the bulb fails or the power goes off, they loose their memory

You would like to hope an EV installer would fix easy and dangerous things when pointed out to them. All of 10 mins to sort. Don’t they have some basic checks / forms to fill in. Says a lot about the ev cowboys too

Didn’t need to drill hole for click connector as they fit between light and ceiling in my case

Yeah I am liking the panel lights from Www.lights.co.uk 16% off at present. Common to have 13% off offers Got 4 of them now. Over 3 rooms. First 2 purchased in 2021 When replacing 6ft tubes I did have to make the plaster look tidy on the ends. Light output is great. Can’t believe the spread...

It would make sense if you wanted 2 neutrals in the cable.

I wouldn’t expect grey. That cable (well mine anyway) was around long before 2004 Annoyingly mine has twin blacks I suspect yours is from the 80’s. And mine from the 90s. They used white black for zone valves in the 80s. ACL. Whwre now they use orange grey

That cable also used in central heating systems. And also useful for outdoor pir lights (in conduit) Some sparks use red t&e for alarm supply

It’s correct for the supply cable 2c+e

sadly charge elsewhere or get one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266995066861

you must have drilled though something. or made other changes while you were doing the stat ? Maybe you have drilled thru the upstairs socket circuit, and the boiler is feed off that circuit too. Either way, you need to get that stat off the wall and see what has happened. Also take a close...

switch off that switch behind the tank and see if the B32 will hold in. could also try that black plug. (maybe a shower pump)

Do yhe first floor sockets work? Wonder if that cu is mislabelled ! Could test some of the switches on the left to see if they do what they say. By turning them off. Have you seen the boiler light up since you have been trying?

Well I think you have drilled thru a cable by the stat. May as well take the stat backing off the wall and see if you can see anything thru the hole and if that cable moves freely

well I think you have done some damage to the boiler, or something. Very difficult to tell from here. You will probably have to get a profesional out. But if you post some pictures of the boiler, timer, switch by boiler, consumer unit someone may have some bright idea's or things you can try...

Just join red and yellow together to see if at least you can get some heating
