Hi all


Any sparkies out there
How would one go about wiring an Analogue Thermostat (Manual) with 2 heating pads?

The thermostat has got 2 wires and obviously the pads have got 2 wires. I tried just joining all in series but that doesn't work.

Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Warren
Here is an example of what I would have done. The thermostat will connect the live wires (according to the temperature setting), and thus heat pads will have power.
