Hi there,
I have just moved into a place with an old oil boiler which was using a Sangamo timer to turn on/off the circulation pump but weirdly not the boiler so you had to manually turn the boiler on and off.
I picked up a cheap hive which i now have up and running and doing the job pretty well. I'm not sure however that I have done the power supply correctly.
The oil boiler says it requires fusing with a 5a fuse but the hive says a 3a fuse so i am switching the boiler via a relay and feeding the hive with a 3a fused switched spur and the boiler with a 5a fused switched spur....Now these two switches have replaced an old single switch metal MEM fuse box which comes off a 6a MCB about a 50cm from the main house fuse board.
Am i able to have two fused switches side by side off one cable straight from the MCB?
Thanks
