    The backup immersion heater will be at the top of the cylinder. it's round...you can google for images. It will have a power cable coming out of it and it will be hard wired to a switch. That switch should normally be turned off and only used when the boiler is not working.

    I have a mega flo there only two boxes on it. There are two switches one near the boiler and one near the cylinder with a grey wire and white wire .It going up stairs to the loft .
  • I'd say switch the one off near the cylinder, but the best test is try switching the boiler of as well and see if the water goes cold eventually.
