Hello, I would like to know going by my image supplied if that black valve is open or closed? I would also like to move it so I can dangle the power cable so it doesn't touch anywhere near that hot pipe.

Is it normally left in this position?

As you will see I have it pushed out slightly with a swab, but I would prefer to have the power cable dangle freely, it's a logic combi boiler esp1 35

No your fine as it’s double insulated

Well invest in a few cable ties and secure it away from the pipe for peace of mind.

To be honest and as per my image there's not much cable length, though I'd already cut a swab and inserted it in place which pushes it away from the pipe.
Other course of action is moving the valve, upping the cable away from its current position, opening the valve again and I'll see what options I have then.
