Do we need one - or maybe some extensions to existing FAQs?
There are already FAQs about thermostats and wiring but - as far as I can see there's one aspect which is not currently adaquately covered. That is, when replacing a mechanical stat which uses an accelerator heater with an electronic one which doesn't, what to do with the redundant neutral wire.
Questions relating to this seem to crop up fairly often. Only yesterday we had one bright spark(!) who couldn't bear the thought of having an unused wire, and so chose to connect it to the spare contact of the stat's change-over switch - with the inevitable pyro-technics and, in his case, wrecking the CH side of his programmer.
In addition, the habit of some 'professionals' of using the earth conductor in T&E cable as a switched live can present a bit of a challenge when trying to identify which wire does what.
What do you reckon?
