I wasn't aware you had all ready purchased hence my suggestion to buy from the EvoHome shop & buy it pre bound. If its just the boiler issue you are concerned about I am happy to fit that as n when you are ready? There is much info on DIY installing the EvoHome on the Honeywell Website plus...

well thanks for a constructive reply. Things get out of hand with irrelevancies so quick. The picture (it appears I foolishly posted) is nothing to do with anything other than the type of boxes used in my end of heating. The point was to show the scale of box to those offering very large & long...

Thanks for all your sarcastic comments and the total lack of constructive input. It must be great being Mr perfect. all you ever do is show off how fantastic you are & how crap everyone else is. My wife spends her life itching for a fight - you would spar well with her. You have managed to...

Ok so thanks for all your reply's - it seems argument is a necessity and not what I was after but: The pic was to give you a clue as to the type of enclosures used in most domestic and light commercial properties and that metal Din rail boxes are seldom required. I was not trying to enter a...

Yes thats the killer - if you dont use screened and u get an issue - it might just be the cabling causing the issue. The CY is pence more than YY and as someone mentioned as a % of the overall bill its nothing.

"And HTF have they ended up with cables and protocols which can be corrupted by "spurious stuff"? It's surely not high-speed long distance. Do the OpenTherm crowd not have a clue?" Multizone OT is volatile & sensitive at the best of times relying on Wifi (for the App) RF and good signal is...

I am in heating and installing lots of Open Therm controllers. The cable that sends the data to & from the boiler - room stat is easily corrupt by spurious 'stuff' and one remedy is to use screened CY cable. I know to only earth the screen at one end but is there a neat prefered way of...

The bloke has made a mistake? give him the chance to put it right before throwing your toys out the pram. Have u never made one? Its all very unfortunate & the fact u have gone for the cheapest quote is irrelevant. It may even have been you fiddling with things that night or even a faulty...

The rucus caused was not just so much that the entire job was awful that being an awful plumbing installer he / they then had a go at being awful electricians to boot! Thankyou for your assistance.

standard 10 way wiring wiring box for S/Y plan with all 7 flexi cables to zone valves stat timer etc not only not clamped in the clamps provided but showing about a min of 1cm of conductor outside the enclosure. Its causing a bit of a rucus on a new awful installation I had cause to inspect...

I am struggling to find the reg that states flexi's must be clamped and not hang on the conductors. I have 'picked up' a wiring centre (heating) that has both no clamps on the flexis & the sheathing missing on the last cm before entering the box. The clamps are there in the enclosure to be...

Turn down DHW o/p to 90%, increase DHW pump overun to 2 minutes Reduce DHW flow temp to 50. Fins on the HX comer loose & cant dissipate the heat when cycling so heat backs up real quick with the bath hot water and trips the HLS. if u look in the memory codes it will have lots of 08...

With a cheapo & cheerfull 'full' Win 8.1 tablet with micro USB can I use a portable CD player to input some simple windows programs

If you have a 3 core flex (ie all 3 conductors are insulated) then this is a very simple cheap & easy to fit remedy. Its not perfect to the letter of the law but it defo works. In an ideal situation the boiler would have a earth from a local spot downstairs As to its operation it will...

:?: :oops: :lol:

i need a teeny weeny laptop - without a screen & keyboard :?

Im not to sure what hosts & devices means but the ones I have seen on ebay etc are for putting information in rather than getting information out (if that makes sense) they cost a fiver - so cant possibly replace a laptop?

I have a data logger that needs a windows PC to store the data via a USB lead. Is there a gizmo that just does this without the need of a laptop? ie something small that the USB plugs into that just records the data onto a sd card or even on to itself?

ok I shall bare all that in mind.

Soldering with a blowtorch , a pot of flux & solder may be an issue lol. I often repair burnt relays & the like on pcbs so hopefully I will think of a way. Maybe that Maplin blank pcb (stripboard?) or maybe solder direct to some cable. I will put all four in a box ( with the four data log...
