Very straightforward. Normally live/neutral/earth in and live/neutral/earth out for most boilers. Depends on the system but not usually difficult.

My brother did his a while back, think it cost him something like £12 for the timer. As WRC, he had +ve, -ve & earth wires with screw on connector jobbies.
