Help with installation / diagram

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Hi,


I am after some help with a heated windows installation / diagram - grateful for any input.

Unfortunately, the company supplying the installion went bust and I have been left with a system that doesn't  work (incorrectly designed).

We had a local electrician do the first fix wiring based on the diagrams but he says what has been sent won't work in it's current state and he doesn't have the relevant expertise to adjust it.

We live in a rural area and electricians are not that common especially for something as complex as this.

Rather than post up the diagrams and go into too much detail initially, I just wanted to know if this is a place to ask for advice and if not could anyone point me in the right direction. e.g contact details for an electrical engineer.


Thanks.

    Hi,


    It looks like I'm fighting a losing battle then - I've tried the legal route through EEC but no joy - would need to chase them through the Belgium courts unfortunately.

    The unit that was delivered for the windows was already pre-wired ready for connections at the bottom - going by the replies it looks like this unit was not the one for these windows?

    One of the limited notes states -  'The windows need to be connected according the schema.Please note: The panes are in series with at least one other pane and sometimes two which means that each group can be tested seperately - do not connect in parallel'. The electrician did get the glass to heat up in sections (amazing how quickly the rooms heated up tbh)  but he wasn't happy with the setup (i.e wrong sensors displaying incorrect temps etc. so not switching off) plus he said impossible to connect all at once and obviously didn't want to be responsible for any issues - hence why nothing connected. 

    I was hoping in theory this would maybe allow for the glass to be connected on a room by room basis and be controlled on/off using a wireless thermostat - so in effect each room / section as a seperate installation.

    E,g Master Bedroom (Bed 2 would be similar)

    Pane 10 = 3.5a / 76v / 22 Oh / 270w

    Pane 16 = 3.5a / 76v / 21 Oh / 270w

    Pane 18 = 3.6a / 76v / 21 Oh / 270w


    Is there any feasible way to achieve this or is it time to just move on?


    Thanks one and all.


    Ian.
