You have a system boiler, so wiring should be done at previously used programmer or at the wiring center.

Think this is for Alpha’s own control

Looks like it could be the following: (hot water off being used if you have a Y plan)

A to L
B to N
2 to hot water on
3 to hot water off if needed
4 to heating on

And that’s from the boiler so run a new wire in the order as cover says 2is optional room thermostat just found out that it’s a gravity feed hw

Yes, run some 5 core heat resistant flex and that should get you all you need, unless a Y plan. Are you sure it’s gravity hot water?

Post a photo of cylinder cupboard if unsure

Old style system

Old style system

Yes, it’s refilled by gravity, but a gravity system in terms of the actual heating of it refers to whether or not there’s a pump.

I tried that way of wiring it but the heating wouldn’t come on and there seems to be no wiring going to the boiler from the tank

I’m a little stumped then, sorry. Good few others on here who can probably help, but you’ll have to be patient.
