Hi,

I'm looking to swap my room thermostat for a new programmable one.

Mine is a three wire (no earth), one I'm looking at is a two wire type, will it matter, whats the extra wire for?

Regards,

Jon
 
Your extra wire will be a neutral which is not req on your 2 wire stat. cut back make safe or disconnect it in the junction box/wiring centre
