I can't believe i did not think of it sooner

[RyanCheetham]

I finally had a brain wave and used Wagos for central heating. I did it after realising i only had pieces of connector strip and not a whole strip and i thought it would look naff. Hunted through the van and found my wago box and voila i shall never go back

Not wishing to pee on you, but

wagos aren't designed to be used on flex, really sorry

 

[onions1066]

All looks good, but can't see any brown sleeving on your switch wires? Do you not bother sleeving up heating controls? Might try the wagos though next time. Good luck on the world peace thing.

Who told you that?

Have to agree with the others, they can be used on flex, sorry chap

 

[RyanCheetham]

Yes they can be used on flex if using lever connectors. And no i dont usually sleeve my heating controls

 

[Rampantchilli]

I stand corrected, I only use the push on type, and you can't use those on flex.
as said they can if they are lever type

 

[onions1066]

Why not?

 

[RyanCheetham]

I have no excuse for it really. Just not a habbit i developed, the guy who trained me never did it on heating controls and ive never been brought up on it before. I can see why i should do it though

 

[HandySparks]

I don't sleeve heating control cores except where a blue core is used as a line conductor or a brown (or other non-blue) core is use as neutral. BGB table 51 allows for a variety of core colours to be used for a line conductor on control circuits, including orange and white.

 

[onions1066]

So sleeving in mains interlinked smokes?

 

[Plonker 3]

Sleeving and identifying conductors is hardly the difference between a safe and unsafe installation is it?

 

[RyanCheetham]

Always sleeve smokes and lighting circuits. Just heating i dont, they can be fiddly enough without sleeving lol

What if the next spark is you ?

Wago have launched a specific "kit" for doing central heating....
