If the rest of the wiring is being done then of course it would make sense to sort it. | |

If it's in the garage I personally wouldn't care how rough arse it looked. | |

but obviously with it being in a kitchen only someone who is qualified to do it could have done the chasing etc. Unless of course you have already notified the local council of the changes your making...... | |

It's a Modena boiler, when you say removeable fuse I take it you mean fuse in the plug? | |

I personally think it looks rough and want it on a fused switch for it. The previous owner has taken spurs from the back of wall sockets all over over the house. This is more than likely why only 2 plug sockets are working, as they're run off the garage circuit for some reason. My cousin is an electrician, he's coming down Wednesday. We'll be ripping all the crap out and starting again. | |

nothing wrong with it being plugged in, if you really want to put it on a fuse spur just take one from the back of the sockets | |

Seriously? That good news, going off the state of the wiring in the rest of the house I was sure it'd be wrong. | |

Nothing wrong with it being plugged into a normal socket. Many of the newer boilers are done this way | |

I've just got the keys to my new house, the combi boiler is in the garage and is wired to a plug which is just in a normal socket. I want to put it on a wall mounted kill switch like you have on a cooker. |
