Re: Nameless steam radiator ID (just curious)

I believe I have met that radiator before, It looks an awful lot like Floyd. Ask him if his name is Floyd... It that is him... Tell him that Edtheheaterman says Hi!

Re: Can I install the Nest Power Connector with this old Honeywell system?

@armcomdes77

You don't have a "C" terminal and the transformer in your control is likely not large enough to support a Nest.

The post above yours has an attachment drawing that shows how to add a transformer and relay to power the Nest.

Re: Can I install the Nest Power Connector with this old Honeywell system?

You may well be able to MacGyver it. I'd have to be there and check all the wiring to be sure as to what goes where and check the phasing.

Why not make life simple for yourself (and the next guy who has to work on it?). Get a nice new 24 VAC, 40 volt ampere transformer. Hook the Nests up to that (you'll need three wire minimum cable). Use the Nests to control simple SPST relays. Run the present thermostat wires to the NO contacts on the relays.

Done.
