Hi all
I'll try and keep your frustration to a minimum by starting out with:
- I'm not trying to cheap out on getting someone in to install my new Nest HeatLink and Thermostat by doing it myself
- I would however love to try and do it myself
- I'm mainly just naturally inquisitive, so even if I can't do it myself I'd love to understand it better, hoping you can help me with that!
I've moved into a new build. Two zoned heating with two wired "ESI ESRDT3" thermostats. "ESI ES3247B" 3-channel programmer in the utility room. Hot water tank in the cupboard upstairs. Would like to install Nest thermostats
Looking through the instructions it actually looked like a relatively simple job that I was looking forward to attacking - I took the front cover off the circuit board that sits on my hot water tank and am confused by the fact that the Live and Neutral terminals for both thermostats aren't connected to anything, only "Normally Open / N/O" is connected to them. Does this mean they're powered separately from mains wiring rather than going through this board, and I therefore can't (easily) use them in wired mode in the same place as my existing room stats? The stats themselves have Live, Neutral, and N/O which are all wired up

Thanks for any info - much appreciated
