Gaggimate pro and eco switch mod (SoC) on a UK GCP
I’m planning to install the GM pro kit soon and wondered if wiring the power switch will be different to the official instructions? I have the Shades of Coffee power switch installed which changes the eco switch with timer to a standard power switch.
I have read conflicting opinions and have also asked on discord, but awaiting answers. As per official instructions, C1 and C2 wires are usually disconnected from the eco power switch and then bridged with a yellow cable. From searching, I’ve seen advice to disconnect C1 and C2 and insulate separately, but also seen advice to just to leave C1 and C2 connected to power switch as gm doesn’t interfere with power.
I have no experience with electrical wiring, so wouldn’t be able to work it out myself, but good at following instructions.
Would appreciate some help soon, as I plan to do the install this evening (in 7hrs)
Edit: I think my understanding above is completely wrong, as I’ve just read through instructions again, but either way it would be helpful for someone to clear up my confusion.
Final edit: Ended up bridging and following official instructions without deviation. Not going to disconnect and insulate as it’s working without issue.
