So...............how would one go about wiring up this timer between the
fused switch and the immersion heater? Any offers? The only way I could
think of would be to ignore the advice on solid copper and still use the
flex. Have cable from the fused switch into a junction box and then flex
from the j.box to the timer. remove outer insulation from the flex and cut
the live wire and connect that through the timer - leaving the neutral and
earth to continue on to the immersion heater. Seems a bit 'Heath
Robinson'ish' however.
Er, yeah, kinda! Without seeing the clock I'd be inclined to run the
flex into and out of the bottom of the timeclock, remove the outer
insulation and just cut the live, kind of like you said but without
the JB. Depends how much room there is in the clock though.
TBH, my mate buys loads of electrical crap from Screwfix and it all
looks a bit Heath Robinson as it's all cheap ****e, so dunno really.
Personally, I'd bin it!
