The cut-out wires are
in series with the thermocouple and connected where the thermocouple
enters the back of the gas valve. I can't remember whether this model has
an electric cut-out switch mounted on the heat exchanger or is operated by
a sensor bulb + capillary tube + resetable switch under neath the boiler.

However there is a reason why it over-heated and that needs to be dealt
with.
