Yep – “The technology can be used for transmitting measurement data from medical instruments and for accessing medical records.” My wife was recently told her eyesight’s improved and needs a weaker lens for her glasses, turns out that wasn’t true. Perhaps the opticians are using the...

Cat5/6 cable it is. I had a reply this morning from the 2 main UK homeplug suppliers both stating the same thing, basically confirming what a lot of you have posted. “Thank you for your enquiry. I have spoken to our product management about your request and the response was that we have spent...

Im looking at devolo products so not to sure if the same thing. Thanks, Andy

Thanks, I'm not wanting to go near the electrics hence asking if there's a simple device which can be used? Regards, Andy

Thanks for all your replies. I should have mentioned previously that the big building is a restaurant. I’m plugging computer hardware devices into each main socket. Each computer device is using the electric mains circuit to send computer data to each other. This is why they have to be on...

Hi, Hoping someone can help. I need to know that the electric circuit I’m plugging devices into is on the same electric circuit. It’s quite a big building and old so am not sure if it uses one circuit or more. Please can someone recommend a cost effective and simple device which can...

The engineer replaced the Temp Sensor, O/U Kit, Plate heat exchanger, and something else. The handwriting is hard too read so apologies for being vague. He also said there was a lot of blockage in the pipes and they could do with flushing out. It did fix the hot water problem. Since then the...

Hi Tony, Thanks for your quick reply. It sounds like a job for a Potterton engineer, if its a big job it makes me feel better for shelling out the £299 fee! cheers, Andy.

Hi, I have a Potterton 24 that’s running warm and cold water only. The CH works ok but when I run the hot water, the burner light ignites and then goes off after about 45 secs, the water then runs from warm to cold and this continues for however long the hot water tap/shower is on. It...

The engineer came out and firstly fitted the new electrode plug, this was not the problem. He then returned and fitted a new PCB and this didn't solve anything either. Finally he came back and fitted a new Microswitch and hey presto it worked! The advise on this website is spot on and much...

We have a corgi registered engineer out later today to fit a new electrode plug. He was around the other day and had a look at it. We noticed that one of the plugs kept on generating a spark after the burner was lit, this then cancelled out the burner (maybe a safety switch of some sort) and the...

Hi Sharon, Thanks for the website address, that is a big help. From hearing your dilemma with the Corgi guy, it encourages me more do try and fix it myself! Hope you have some luck with the switch also. I’ll post the outcome of it. Cheers

That’s a good point; I don't see why that wouldn't work. I've been searching for a microswitch for the Potterton Performa 24 Combi Boiler but have no luck finding one, or for that model anyway. Any chance you know of any decent websites could supply the part? Cheers, Andy

Thanks Tony, It sounds like a job for an engineer, I was thinking of having a go at changing it myself because it looks like small component with one screw holding it but I now notice it’s wired into the PCB too. Thanks for all your replies. Andy.

Thanks Tony. I tried that and it didn't seem to effect the control of the boiler, it would still start and stop the burner every 10 secs regardless if I was touching the microswitch lever. If I turn on the sink hot water tap, the pin comes out of the DHW Pressure Differential Valve and pushes...

Thanks for your reply Namsag. Do you know how I'll be able to check if its stuck?

Hi All, First of all, great forum, I was wondering whether you can help me please, l have a Potterton Combi Boiler - Performa 24 I’ve recently moved into a new house and have found that the Potterton Performa 24 isn’t working as it should be. My boiler decides to come on when it...
