You're better off having something with clamps in it for the flexes though Dave, I use the 'wiring centres' but take out all the idiot proof links.

Yeah i like the clamps for this sort of job, but i might try daves techniques for a standard through the wall install. The links are a pain but are quite handy for the permanent lives.

Yeah you generally need at least 2 terminals linked for all the permanent lives, neutrals and earths Will but odd how some of those boxes still come with factory red links, they're a bit behind the times eh ?

if you have a dual zone system its a ballache as the wiring centre needs heavy modification.

so what mods have to be done? would these work with a 5 zone UFH system?

I don't really rate the nest setup. with underfloor heating I generally try and stick to heatmiser thermostats and if the customer wants to be able to control it from a phone/app then I use heatmiser neo thermostats with a hub/gateway.

anyone else had to fit the new valient vmsart? Whoever thought of having to power the receiver with a plug transformer needs shooting. Having to install a new single socket just to power that is plain silly.
