Hive Active Heating Self Install - Replacing EPH WRS1i

Apr 24, 2020 Last reply: 6 years ago 3 Replies

Hi all, I bought a Hive active heating system to replace the current set up which is an EPH wireless system WRS1i for my Worcester Combi boiler. I thought (perhaps stupidly) that the set up would be easy and I could avoid a BG install! When I opened the EPH receiver I realised I'm actually not sure what to do - the L and N are straightforward but I see multiple (3) Live wires so I'm stumped.



There is a wall mounted thermostat which has never worked (and is probably in the current set up (pls see pic) but as its no longer required - I would appreciate any advice on what needs to be removed from the existing circuit when installing the single channel Hive receiver? Pls help!!! Many thanks

I think your first move should be to get a decent Usenet feed and ditch that web based disaster, as most peop have it blocked. Brian

I had no problem connecting to our Bosch Worscester 28i Combi. L & N and switched live from the boiler to the receiver. The only departure from the wiring diagram was due to the receiver operating a zero volt switch which required a link from L at the receiver to one side of the switch.

Have you not got the installation manual for your boiler mine was very clear about what the connections were for programmable thermostats?
