    Just wanted to clarify something here - I was thinking of CBUS'sing the Heating system by just bypassing the timer switch.

    Currently we have a seperate temperature sensor - I wont touch that. What Im thinking I can replace is the timer switch - All it seems to do is just make a electrical connection at a certain time for the heating and the water tank (one for each)

    So in theory, I should be able to take the live and common for these , and just plug them straight into a CBUS relay channel. I can then use Comfort's logic to activate the relays etc, and have a CBUS switch show the status and can use that to override as well.

    I'll also assume that it's 240v, and that it's less than 10Amps !

    All make sense ? Anything Im missing ?

    Here's a picture of the back of the switch
