Installing a drayton digistat +3RF on a Baxi 105e

[arniep]

Hello, I am brand new to this site and looking through some posts I thought someone on here would be able to help me.

I have a Baxi combi 105e with no room stat just the timer thing.
I have bought a Drayton digistat +3RF and want to install it.
I am quite competent at most electrical jobs but just don't understand the manuals.
Is there anyone out there that might be able to give me a quick step by step guide to where the few wires are supposed to to.

The instruction manual links are:
http://theinitiativegroup.org.uk/fscinitiativedatabase/Baxi/BaxiCombi80e105e.pdf page 22
and
http://www.gasapplianceguide.co.uk/Digistat Instructions.pdf

All help would be much appreciated!

Clock on boiler put this to constant and leave it there so that everything is done by digi stat

From your fused spur that supplys boiler take a live and neutral to digi stat receiver,

from boiler remove link and from terminal 1 take wire to terminal 1 of receiver from terminal 3 of receiver take that to terminal 2 of boiler

So on the terminal block in the boiler, on the left hand side of it I just need to add 4 extra wires: live-live, neutral-neutral, 1-1 and 2-3 and remove the link between 1and2.
THANKYOU
I'll have a go now and be back soon asking how to put out a fire

Yes but you will struggle to get 2 wires into the L an N connections which is why i said take them from your fused spur

A-ha, just taken it apart and see what you mean, very tight in there. Difficult to get wires in.

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, thankyou!!!!!

Looks like it's working a treat.
Over the next few weeks I'll get all the programs set up.

The advice of taking it from the spur was spot on, easier to do and looks much tidier.

I owe you a pint

Baxi 105 is a combi boiler, wouldn't these instructions effectively disable hot water when digistat is not trying to heat?
