2. Remove the two screws from the boiler's rear top panel.
Only qualified professionals may carry out electrical connections, always
with the power off.
Earth the appliance before making any electrical connections.
Power the appliance via a circuit that includes an omni-polar switch with
contact opening distance of 3 mm or more.
When making electrical connections to the mains, respect the polarities.
Danger
Position the various electrical cables in such a way that they never
touch the heating pipes.
Keep the various electrical cables far enough from the heating
pipes so that they cannot be damaged by the effect of the heat.
5.3.2 Electrical power supply
Power supply voltage230 V AC/50 Hz
Caution
Please ensure the polarities shown on the terminals are followed,
i.e live (L), neutral (N) and earth ()
5.3.3 Recommended cable cross section
Decide on the cable according to the following information:
Distance of the appliance from the power source.
Upstream protection.
Neutral operating conditions.
Tab.2Specifications of the power cable and the power source
Caution
Provide a separate power supply for the pump and a power
switch, if necessary.
The output available per outlet is 450 W (2 A, with cos ϕ = 0.7)
and the inrush current must be less that 16 A. If the load exceeds
either of these values, the control must be relayed using a
contactor that must in no circumstances be installed in the control
panel. The sum of the currents from all outlets must not exceed
5 A.

6. Connect the boiler's main power supply cable.
Fig.24to SCB-02
Fig.25to SCB-02
5.3.5 Connecting a modulating thermostat
The boiler is fitted with an R-Bus connection as standard. This connection
is also compatible with OpenTherm. This enables the user to connect
OpenTherm modulating thermostats (such as iSense Pro) or R-Bus
thermostats (such as eTwist) without any further adjustments being made
to the appliance. The boiler is also suitable for OpenTherm Smart Power.
1. In the case of a room thermostat: install the thermostat in a reference
room.
2. Connect the two-wire cable for the thermostat to the R-Bus terminals
for the connector. It does not matter which wire is connected to which
terminal block.
Important
If the domestic hot water temperature can be set on the
OpenTherm thermostat, the boiler will supply this temperature,
with the value set in the boiler as a maximum.
5.3.6 Connecting an on/off thermostat
The boiler is suitable for connection to a two-wire on/off room thermostat
(Tk).
1. Fit the thermostat in a reference room.
2. Connect the two-wire cable for the thermostat to the R-Bus terminals
of the connector. It does not matter which wire is connected to which
terminal block.
5.3.7 Frost protection combined with on/off thermostat
Fig.26to SCB-02
Fig.27to SCB-02
When an on/off thermostat is used, the pipes and radiators in a frostsensitive room can be protected by a frost thermostat. The radiator valve
in the frost-sensitive room must be open.
1. Place a frost thermostat (Tv) in a frost-sensitive room (e.g. a garage).
2. Connect the frost thermostat (Tv) and the on/off thermostat (Tk) in
parallel to the
R-Bus terminals of the connector.
Warning
If a Remeha eTwist or OpenTherm thermostat is used, a frost
thermostat cannot be connected in parallel to the R-Bus terminals.
In this case, ensure frost protection of the central heating system
in combination with an outside sensor.
5.3.8 Frost protection combined with outdoor temperature
sensor
The central heating system can also be protected against frost in
combination with an outdoor temperature sensor. The radiator valve in the
frost-sensitive room must be open.
1. Connect the outdoor temperature sensor to the Tout terminals of the
connector.
The frost protection works as follows with an outdoor temperature sensor:
If the outdoor temperature is lower than -10 °C: heat demand from the
boiler.
If the outdoor temperature is higher than -10 °C: no heat demand from
the boiler.
Fig.28to SCB-02
Fig.29to CB-09
Important
The outdoor temperature before the start of frost protection can be
changed with the AP080 parameter.
5.3.9 Connecting an outdoor temperature sensor
An outdoor temperature sensor (accessory) can be connected to the Tout
terminals of the connector. If the boiler is equipped with an on/off
thermostat, the temperature is controlled using the setpoint of the internal
heating curve (F). Various parameter settings can be used to change the
internal heating curve.
1. Connect the plug from the outdoor temperature sensor to the Tout
terminal.
5.3.10 Blocking input
The boiler has a blocking input (normally closed contact). This input
relates to the BL terminals of the connector.
If this contact is opened, the boiler will be blocked or locked out.
Change the function of the input by configuring the AP001 parameter.
Important
Remove the bridge if this input is used.
Only suitable for potential-free contacts.
Connecting a three-way valve (230 VAC). The connection can be used for
a boiler group (zone).
Connect the three-way valve as follows:

5.3.19 Connecting status notifications
The two potential-free contacts, Status, can be configured as required.
Depending on the setting, a particular status can be transmitted by the
boiler.
Connect a relais as follows:
Nc
Normally closed contact. Contact will open when status occurs.
C
Main contact.
No
Normally opened contact. Contact will close when status occurs.
Select the desired status notification (setting) using parameter EP018 and
EP019.
5.3.20 Connecting 0–10 V output
The 0-10 contact can be used to connect a PWM system pump. The
speed of the pump is modulated based on the signal received from the
boiler. Depending on the make and type of pump, the pump can be
controlled by a 0–10 V or a PWM signal.
Connect the system pump controller to connector 0-10.
Select the type of signal that will be sent from the boiler using the
parameter EP029.
Select the type of signal that controls the pump using the parameter
EP028.
If possible, use the pump modulation signal. This provides the
most accurate pump control.
If the automatic burner unit does not support pump modulation,
the pump will behave as an on/off pump.
5.3.21 Connection options for the expansion PCB - IF-01
Fig.40IF-01 PCB
The expansion board IF-01 is pre-installed in the instrument box as
standard.
Caution
Do not connect a frost thermostat or room thermostat to the boiler
if using the 0–10 V control PCB.
Connecting the status relay (Nc)
If the boiler locks out, a relay is de-energised and the alarm can be
transmitted via a potential-free contact (maximum 230 V, 1 A) on terminals
Nc and C of the connector.
Connection (OTm)
The interface uses OpenTherm to communicate with the boiler control
unit. To make this possible, the OTm connection must be connected to the
OpenTherm input of the boiler control unit.OTm
Analogue input (0-10 V)
A choice can be made with this control between control based on
temperature or heat output. The two controls are described briefly below.

There is a Service connector next to the control panel. A Recom interface
can be used to connect a PC, laptop or a Smart Service Tool here. Using
the Recom PC/laptop service software, you can enter, change and read
out various boiler settings.
Connecting an interface connector:
1. Move the Service connector slide upwards.
2. Push the interface connector into place. It should snap shut with a
click.
Disconnect the interface connector again:
3. Maintain slight tension on the interface connector
4. Push the slide downwards. The interface connector will now be
