    I have to replace my apt analogue central heating timer. I'm told a Sauter T17 digital one would be a good option. Could anyone reccomend where I could buy one on line or is it better to just go to a local plumbers supply shop.

    Thanks for your reply would those two be pretty much the same or would there be any reason to go for one over the other.

    Ok I went with the Sauter T17. I would be very grateful for some help with the wiring. The old apt timer had one brown wire going to terminal 1(live out) two brown wires to terminal 2(live in) and 2 dark blue wires and a light blue wire going to terminal 3 (neutral). What way should I arrange these wires in the T17. Thanks in advance.

    No1 live in
    No2 neutral
