Important!
In the event that the power supply cord must be changed, replace it with one
with the same specifications. Make the connections to the terminal board
located within the control panel, as follows:
- The yellow-green wire should be connected to the terminal marked with the
earth symbol; make sure to re-use the ferrule mounted on the other supply
cord;
- The blue wire should be connected to the terminal marked “N”;
- The brown wire should be connected to the terminal marked “L”.
Note:The diagrams for the electrical system are indicated in section 2.11.
Warning, this appliance must be earthed.
External wiring to the appliance must be carried out by a qualified technician
and be in accordance with the current I.E.E. Regulations and applicable local
regulations. The EuroCombi range of boilers are supplied for connection to a
230 V~ 50 Hz supply.
The supply must be fused at 3 A.
The method of connection to the electricity supply must facilitate complete
electrical isolation of the appliance, by the use of a fused double pole isolator
having a contact separation of at least 3 mm in all poles or alternatively, by
means of a 3 A fused three pin plug and unswitched shuttered socket outlet
both complying with BS 1363.
The point of connection to the electricity supply must be readily accessible and
adjacent to the appliance unless the appliance is installed in a bathroom when
this must be sited outside the bathroom.
2.7 Gas Connection
The local gas region contractor connects the gas meter to the service pipe.
If the gas supply for the boiler serves other appliances ensure that an adequate
supply is available both to the boiler and the other appliances when they are in
use at the same time.
Pipe work must be of an adequate size. Pipes of a smaller size than the boiler
inlet connection should not be used.

Detailed recommendations are given in BS 6798:1987 and BS 5449-1:1990,
the following notes are given for general guidance.
Pipe Work:
Copper tubing to BS EN 1057:1996 is recommended for water pipes. Jointing
should be either with capillary soldered or compression fittings.
Where possible pipes should have a gradient to ensure air is carried naturally
to air release points and water flows naturally to drain taps.
The appliance has a built-in automatic air release valve, however it should be
ensured as far as possible that the appliance heat exchanger is not a natural
collecting point for air.
Except where providing useful heat, pipes should be insulated to prevent heat
loss and avoid freezing.
Particular attention should be paid to pipes passing through ventilated spaces
in roofs and under floors.
By-pass:
The appliance includes an automatic by-pass valve, which protects the main
heat exchanger in case of reduced or interrupted water circulation through
the heating system, due to the closing of thermostatic valves or cock-type
valves within the system.
System Design:
This boiler is suitable only for sealed systems.
Drain Cocks:
These must be located in accessible positions to permit the draining of the
whole system.The taps must be at least 15mm nominal size and
manufactured in accordance with BS 2870:1980.
Safety Valve Discharge:
The discharge should terminate facing downwards on the exterior of the
building in a position where discharging (possibly boiling water & steam) will
not create danger or nuisance, but in an easily visible position, and not cause
damage to electrical components and wiring.
The discharge must not be over an entrance or a window or any other type of

public access.
Air Release Points:
These must be fitted at all high points where air naturally collects and must
be sited to facilitate complete filling of the system.
The appliance has an integral sealed expansion vessel to accommodate the
increase of water value when the system is heated.
It can accept up to 7 l (1.5 gal) of expansion water.If the heating circuit has
an unusually high water content, calculate the total expansion and add an
additional sealed expansion vessel with adequate capacity.
Mains Water Feed - Central Heating:
There must be no direct connection to the mains water supply even through a
non-return valve, without the approval of the Local Water Authority.
Filling:
A temporary method for initially filling the system and replacing lost water
during servicing in accordance with Water Supply Byelaw 14 must be
provided.
DomesticWater
The domestic water must be in accordance with the relevant recommendation
of BS 5546:1990. Copper tubing to BS EN 1057:1996 is recommended for
water carrying pipe work and must be used for pipe work carrying drinking
water.
2.9 Flue Connections
Flue System
The provision for satisfactory flue termination must be made as described
in BS 5440-1.
The appliance must be installed so that the flue terminal is exposed to outdoor air.
The terminal must not discharge into another room or space such as an
outhouse or lean-to.
It is important that the position of the terminal allows a free passage of air
across it at all times.
The terminal should be located with due regard for the damage or
discolouration that might occur on buildings in the vicinity.
In cold or humid weather water vapour may condense on leaving the flue
terminal.
The effect of such "steaming" must be considered.
If the terminal is less than 2 metres above a balcony, above ground or above a
flat roof to which people have access, then a suitable terminal guard must be
fitted.When ordering a terminal guard, quote the appliance model number.
A suitable terminal guard is available from:
