Connecting Nest Power Connector to Taco Multi Zone Box

Hi All,

I have a two nest thermostats that only have a red and white wires available. It would be very difficult to run a new wire with a C-wire to either of them due to their location. Instead I have ordered a pair of Nest Power Connectors. The thermostats are part of a multi-zone system that runs through a TACO multi zone box (see pic of box and wiring diagram). I can see where the 24V power is located on the board (upper left) but I am not sure if I can connect the power connector to that part of the board. Would the best thing be to run a single wire from that location on the board our of the box and then connect the C-wire of the two power connectors to that same wire? Any advice would be appreciated.

Go ahead and shut down. I have come up with a different solution in the end (swapping to different model).
