Electric wiring above boiler flu

[mrbg07546]

I am doing a full rewrite and new boiler location.

the electrocution is at work. The boiler flu will come out to left of the boiler . There will be a bit of wiring above it. Is this allowed?

Won’t the electrocution be able to advise?

He said as long as we have 150mm between boiler and any wiring. Flu don’t matter

I’d double check the boiler instruction manual in case it mentions it, normally you get diagrams of allowed and not allowed flue positioning

Ok couldn’t see anything https://www.vaillant.co.uk/downloads/z/ecotec/ecotec-installation-servicing-2-2005-261445.pdf

I believe any trunking/wire it would need to be 20mm below?

Flue gases aren’t that hot, and the outer flue is the air intake, so I’d say it’s ok, but maybe speak to Vaillant to confirm? It’s not something I’m aware of.
