refurbing. I want to install the new condensing combi boiler in the bathroom. What restrictions are there with regard to electical safety? How far do i need to site it away from bath, sink etc? Where do i site the electrical switch/fuse for the boiler?



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it is in a cupboard and all electrics are inside then no problems.

A Wocester Bosch CDi can be installed in Zone 2 - as long as a doesn't have a mechanical time fitted and fuse/switch etc is outside.

This is according to my boiler installation manual:

"The boiler can be installed in zones 2 or 3. If a mechanical or RF mechanical timer is fitted the boiler can only be installed in zone 3. Electrical switches, fused spur and socket outlets must not be situated in the bathroom"

The installation manual for the boiler with give all the details anyway.

Mr F. you must have been looking at the same manual that I just browsed at ;-)

Thanks for your replies, I am about to purchase the boiler (Biasi H Condensing boiler), I will seek out the installation manual.
