[QUOTE="Rob_the_rich, post: 453834, member: 8419"] Bonjour Ruth, as an aside, I noticed in your photo that the second from right twin and earth cable (at bottom with red to 6 and black to 4) does not seem to have its earth wire connected. It looks like the cylinder stat cable. There is also an unconnected earth from one of the flexible cables. Both these earths should be connected to either terminal 3. I think you should just about be able to get a connector onto the t&e earth, put the flex earth in and put a new piece of earth wire from that connector to term 3 It might be worth checking the cylinder stat, and whatever the flex goes to, to see if the earths are safely terminated there (not touching live components, preferably in a connector. Switch everything off first, everything, main switch at fuseboard, mcb and local fused spur [/QUOTE]
