Fans with an integral timer need a 3 core and earth supply to allow the unit to run on after a light is switched off. It must also be possible to isolate the fan by means of a pull switch inside the bathroom, or a fan isolation (3 pole) switch outside of the bathroom.

Before attempting fan or any other electrical connection ensure all circuits are off.

Isolation switch must be on a pull cord inside a bathroom or as above, outside.

 

 

            

D =  Earth Connection  = To all units…This wire should be sleeved in a green/yellow earth sleeve.

C =  Neutral Connection  = To 3 & 6  

A =  Permanent Live Connection  = To 2 & 5

B =  Switched Live Connection  = To 1 & 4

             For regulations governing heights of sockets etc, please click here
