Can anyone help me please. desmo11225 Could be wired wrongly! *All* the electrics for the heating system should be wired via a single isolator - enabling the whole system to be isolated when switched off. But if the system is powered from multiple supplies, parts could still be live when other parts are switched off. -- Cheers, Roger ____________ Please reply to Newsgroup.
