Hi,
I'm about to switch to an energy tariff whereby i think it would be better/cheaper to heat my water via my immersion heater and not my gas boiler.
I have a plain old switch attached and wanted to install a new WiFi-enabled switch or, failing that, a timer switch.
I've just opened up the switch and there's 7 wires! Most of these switches seem to have 3 connections, so i'm a bit lost as to what i'm going to do.
It seems that one set of wires is running upwards and powering the Hive heating so my assumption is they can be grouped together in 3 sets ?
There are :
2 green and 1 green and yellow wires
2 red
2 black
As you can see below, the 2 red and 2 black seem to be going into the same connection.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
