    Wiring when replacing DPST heating switch with Boost button

    I've hit a bit of a dead end, I thought replacing those switches with timer/booster switches would be straightforward and it was just a question of identifying which wire goes where, but it seems like there is more to it than that. I'm going to have to call in the heating engineer I've used...
