thanks for all your reply's been in touch with Worcester bosch tec and explained the situation and they say a minimum of 1 metre but when this is done it will but about 2 metres , I've worked on high pressure cooling systems and control systems for broadcast transmitters I'm not touching the boiler just the water side thanks baz
How did you sort the wiring live issue out without taking the case off the boiler?

yes I took the case off to rectify this I'm not breaking any rules as this is my boiler indeed some gas safe engineer's wont even touch wiring I'm totally confident in doing this I'm no here to argue about rules some people get mixed up with law and rules . sure I'm going too find a gas safe registered engineer to service and check the boiler this seems hard to find baz
 
hi did fit automatic bypass valve and the boiler is now running the pump overrun correctly now and not getting any thermal shock noises from boiler when it used too shut down,
because I had to disable the pump over run its a terrier Yorkshire a. b. v . seems to like about 3.5 mb setting . can anyone help in a simple way to set up sorry if I upset anybody about taking the boiler case off to rectify the wiring I did pass corgi gas safety Couse when I worked on high power transmitters quite a few years ago .
 
What's your reg number (gas) / what courses did you do
 
What's your reg number (gas) / what courses did you do
this as over 25 years ago we used to have too look after remote sites that had basic heaters and now which is banned helium based fire control on high power transmitter devices gas these used to be in large telecom switch sites but are no longer used also the old anolog high power transmitters had a large array of cooling systems which was mostly water baste for cooling I've come for basic advice not be questioned about weather I can look or alter the water based pipe work for my own boiler I paid a gas safe registered to install this and he didn't realise it needed a abv or that he had incorrectly wired up the boiler who was very reluctant to come back I don't claim to be gas safe .
 
certain cases on boilers form a seal around the combustion chamber, if you remove it the combustion may be effected which could potentially cause major issues.

I understand you may think you’re doing nothing wrong by taking the case off but theres a reason competent engineers are required when working on boilers and for that reason you won’t get any help from people here and it’s not because they don’t want to help you.
