How would you define an engineer? Some one who has level 5 or above qualifications in an engineering subject. Be that HND, HNC, foundation degree or above.
I am talking about trying to squeeze the very most out of (in this case) an old S plan whilst adding a new type boiler?
OK now we are getting to the bones of the problem. So we have two motorised valves and a tank thermostat (can’t use old switch type has to be special see below) any time settings are done by the boiler. I am looking at http://www.intergasheating.co.uk/lijsten/files/101503 - 88322702 C HRE SB MV1.pdf at to what the boiler can do.
It seems the boiler sends out signals with X2 (3, 5, and 6) to control the motorised valves. http://www.controlead.com/media/downloads/VC4013-6013ps.pdf gives instructions for these. So terminal 5 becomes line when there’s a call for heat.
Connector X4 (9, 10) has to have the special sensor 092.642 fitted which lets the boiler know the domestic water temperature. Domestic water heating takes priory over central heating.
This gives very little as to what the electrician can do as far as wiring other than follow the boiler manufactures instructions. The only thing that has to be done is use a relay or internal switches of the motorised valves to change the designed single valve operation to double valve operation.
http://www.honeywelluk.com/Documents/Reference-Guide/pdf/911.pdf gives us the internal wiring of the valve and white, orange, and grey wires are connected to a micro switch with brown and blue working the motor. So it is simply a case of using the built in switch on the central heating valve to open the domestic hot water valve.
With so little that we can now configure our selves in the main we have to just follow manufactures instructions what is the question?
