Replacing Room Thermostat

Aug 20, 2005 1 Replies

Hi, I have a honeywell T40 thermostat which i want to replace with



programmable one. However on the new stat i only have 3 terminals:



COM NO NC



On my old one I have 6 and 4 of them are in use:


1= Red
2= Blue
3= Yellow
4= Earth

Any idea which wire i put in what terminal on the new stat Unfortunately the old stat i numbered not letters?



Any help greatly appreciated. Thank

You have the same with the new one - but you are not counting the earth - perhaps it is double insulated and doesn't need it - or is it a separate tag?

If you examine the old one there may be an indication (maybe a diagram) of the contact arrangement. Alternatively test it with a circuit tester. NO and NC should never connect. COM to NO should make a circuit what the temp is turned up to above ambient. You may find it worth looking at the boiler end to deduce what is what. There may even be a diagram. Convention would be to connect the red to the COM.
