Central heating timer pump and auto valve question

[fabgav]

I'm currently putting a new CU in to replace the old fuse box and have a question about the central heating controls

At the moment the timer unit has power coming from a socket on the downstairs ring, so its a spur and it has a fused connection rated at 3 amps.
the power goes into the timer unit then onto the pump and auto' valve

my question is, is this okay? lol
i cant really get any more cable's accross the living room to the new CU so really it needs to stay like this but something just doesnt ring true with it??

any advice? thanks

That is a fairly usual way of powering a CH system. All of the electrics in the system are protected by the 3amp fuse.

I guess you aware that, as a DIYer, you must notify this work to the local authority, before you start.

Please read http://www.diynot.com/wiki/electrics:part_p:diy_electrical_work_and_the_law if you are not aware of the legalities of this.
