I’m trying to update my current (UK) ‘Warmup’ electrical thermostat with a new z-wave one and have hit a wall with the wiring. Would anyone be able to tell me how I wire this old wiring:
Thanks Finn, so basically you’re saying I need to wire the 2 live and 2 neutral wires into the singular live and neutral connectors on the new thermostat (seen below)?
So to update, got it all up and running but the back box of my old thermostat is too small to accommodate the large z-wave module, so it looks as though I’m now going to have to remove it and re-setup the old one. Sods law!
Thanks Finn, but it’s just too far out. need to chase the wall, but I’d have to get someone in for that.
On a side point, I’ve left it wired to test out but the underfloor heating doesn’t seem to be heating up as quickly, or maybe even at all, it’s been on an hour (manual setting, so I’m not being scuppered by timers etc) now and whilst the old thermostat would’ve definitely made an impact by now, this one doesn’t yet seem to have done anything. Am I missing something here? Is it something to do with the voltage which displays ‘AC85-260V 50-60hz’ on the new one, whereas the old one states: ‘230VAC 50hz’ - does this make any difference?
Yes, 3 wavy lines appear and it ‘clicks’ to show when it’s on (heat is set to 23 degrees, 18 is ambient temp), but it’s just not working, floor is still cold
If you have a multimeter, check the output voltage between terminals N and OUT. On heating mode, the voltage should be near 230VAC (same as input voltage between terminals N and IN)
I tightened up that neutral and all seems to be working, I must have loosened something whist fitting it! Many thanks again for you help, just hope I can get this sitting flush now
