I am installing an extractor fan that has a built-in humidstat and timer. I ordered a '10A 3 Pole Fan Isolator Switch with 3A Fuse' to combine having both a fan isolator switch and a FCU.
Has anyone wired one of these up before or would they have a good idea how to do it? It's more the 'L in' and 'L out' element on the back of the fuse that I am not sure about.
The fan is a Xpelair CV4SR that has 3 connections (T-L-N).
I am planning to wire:
L1: Black (Switch live) to 'T' (within the fan unit) L2: Brown (Permanent live) to 'L' L3/N: Grey (Neutral) to 'N'
That being the case, where do L in and L Out wire into?
Connect it as you said. BUT, instead of the permanent live going to L connect it to L in on the fuse, then connect a small wire from L out on the fuse to L on the isolator.
