Help! Netatmo Wireless Thermostat installation on ideal mini c28

[shaun1]

The power part should yes, but this is easily achieved with 3way wago terminals or similar. But as discussed, best to get someone in to do this and check it's all safe.

Basically Johnny , Yes: As Shaun said, the White wire seems to go to the boiler so needs to still be there.
Unfortunately I had no idea that you disconnected anything other than the thermostat wire until post 16.
As I said earlier: Please call a good local Electrician to trace the wiring and do the connections.

It's worth mentioning there appears to be no earth (it is cut off) to the thermostat connection cable. It clearly states in the installation manual the earths are not shown, but should NOT be excluded (or words to that effect), so when you get the local spark in, ask him to sort the earth out, even if the cable is not being used anymore (the earth can still serve it's purpose if someone nails it via another cable).

I've got a netatmo same as yours. If you're in the west Yorkshire area pm me and I can install it for you if you need.

Stummish, that's a generous offer, thank you.

However, i can announce i have sucsesfully connected the thermostat. It was a simple as doubling up the wiring coming from the power terminal - not replacing the current wires. In hindsight that is obvious, but there you go.

Thank you to everyone for helping.

Hhm: Not being funny buddy, but you were told that in posts #19 & 22.
If you'd given us the correct information in the 1st place, I.e you disconnected more than just the thermostat wire. Your "problem" would have been solved much sooner.
