Drayton Digistat+ 3 hard wire problem

[ShaunCorbs]

if the flame sim is there then the room stat is calling for heat pitty you didnt have a multi meter with you as red should be live (when power is on) and black is back to the boiler for call (eg turn on) i think

What is the worst it can do if it doesn't work? Could it blow the fuse?

no just wouldnt work/work
as the things rated for 240v

Should it matter if the red sleeving is biting down on the screw rather than the copper wire in the connecter block on the Drayton programmer?

no as the copper will still be touching

sorry to say hard to tell with out a multi meter if you have voltage in red one (230-250v) to earth could be the stat but if you dont have voltage on red or black could be further back, does it work with old stat back on ?

you didnt do them live did you?
