Hi,
I have successfully fitted a V3 thermostat on a yPlan system in my holiday home.
I have two more to install now in my own house, which has 3 zones, bedrooms (heating), main house (heating) and Hot water. This I presume is an Splan install.
The install is obviously different to my last one, but the junction box looks totally different to the other houses wiring.
There are 3 valves. 2 white plastic ones for Living area heating zone 1 and bedrooms heating area zone 2, just below this junction box, and a metal incased valve on the hot water tank. The wiring is as follows (with reference to Junctions 1-10 on the choc box above from the left)
Hot water tank valve has 5 wires, orange to 10, grey to 1, black to 2, blue to 9 and earth to 8
Heating valve 1 (living)has 4 wires, orange to 10, grey to 1, blue to 2, and brown to 5.
Heating valve 2 (beds) has orange to 10, grey to 1, blue to 2 and brown to 7.
I have a black cable coming through the wall with red to 10 (on top in the pic), black to 9, and green to earth 8 (could this be the boiler which is located in the garage?)
from the grey sheaths coming down the conduit, there are 2 reds going to 4, a yellow to 5, a red and yellow to 6, and a yellow to 7 , some of these at least are likely to come from the hall and bedroom stats.
I am only concerned with the living area (zone 1) and hot water install at the minute, once that is successful, Ill connect up the 2nd Heat link. I should know where I am by then.
On the heatlink, I am running live to live, and n to neutral from the switch. I am then linking L, 2 and 5 together.
1 and 4 remain unconnected?
This leaves 3, and 6 to the heatlink.
Im thinking 3 on heatlink goes to 5 on the choc block to meet the brown wire from the living area heating zone valve?
I have not located the cylinder thermostat, just the metal valve as described above. I understand 6 on the heatlink needs to connect to the cylinder stat?
This is the living area thermostat. which of these two wires would be the wires that attach to t1 and t2 on the heatlink for nest 12v power? and what should I do with the third?
This is the bedroom zone thermostat. Easier this time as there are only two wires. Ill join them and run a continuity test.
Why would the first stat have three wires, and the second only 2 wires?
A lot of questions here I know, but Im very close. And after completing a successful yplan install a few days ago, I am determined to get this one sorted as well.
