What it is

The Alpha 1.016779 is an ignition electrode for Alpha CD series gas boilers. It delivers the high-voltage spark that lights the burner when the boiler receives a call for heat. It is a serviceable part, replaced when the spark path fails or the electrode tip becomes damaged.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The boiler fails to ignite and locks out repeatedly
  • No spark is visible at the burner during an ignition attempt
  • The ignition circuit clicks audibly but no flame is established
  • The electrode tip shows erosion, cracking, or heavy carbon build-up
  • The ceramic insulator is cracked or the lead connection is loose

Before you order

  • Check the appliance data plate for the model and GC number and confirm it appears in the fits list
  • Inspect the existing electrode and its lead to confirm the fault lies with the electrode
  • Isolate the electrical supply and the gas before removing the old part
