32 EXTERNAL ELECTRICAL CONTROLS

Wiring External to the Boiler
The fuse rating should be 3A.
Wiring external to the boiler MUST be in accordance with the
current I.E.E. (BS.7671) Wiring Regulations and any local
regulations.
Room Thermostat
If the thermostat has a neutral connection, use it (it provides
for more energy efficient operation by reducing switching
temperature differentials).
Frost Protection
If parts of the pipework run outside the house or if the boiler
will be left off for more than a day or so then a frost thermostat
should be wired into the system.
This is usually done at the programmer, in which case the
programmer selector switches are set to OFF and all the other
controls MUST be left in the running position.
The frost thermostat should be sited in a cold place but where
it can sense heat from the system.
Note. If the boiler is installed in a garage it may be necessary
to fit a pipe thermostat, preferably on the return pipework.
Wiring should be as shown, with minimal disturbance to other
wiring of the programmer.
Designation of the terminals will vary but the programmer and
thermostat manufacturers' leaflets will give full details.
