Hi this video is about wiring a bathroom extractor fan wiring fan to the three pole fan switch isolator and pull cord switch.

Ceiling fan ikea. Do i require a fan isolator switch. Installing a timed fan extractor. Isolation switch for use in bathrooms and special areas for isolating circuits.

The fan im connecting is man. The extractor fan should not be fused separately from outside the door. Within the range there are many top trade brands to choose from and a wide selection of finishes and colours to suit the look and feel of any room.

Folks i have a project where the bathroom has an extraction fan that comes on when the light is switched on. It should just be an isolator switch. Does a bathroom fan which needs a permanent feed neutral and switch wire also need a three pole isolator switch installed to comply with the current regulations.

A fan isolator switch is normally used with an extractor fan to enable isolation of the fan for repair and maintenance and is fitted outside the room. The fan will be extracting air via a grille outlet and ducting in the bathroom in zone 1. Which ever one you are using the wiring itself should be the same.

Please ensure you use certified voltage testers and isolate any circuit you work on. The switched fan live will be controlled by a manual switch on the wall outside the bathroom. The idea of a fan isolator is so that the fan cannot become live accidentally during maintenance but also functionally so that you can switch off the fan without having to turn the lights off.

Building control in scotland if that makes a difference is saying that there should be a high level isolator switch for the fan but the electrician has said it doesnt need one as it is not on a timer. If the fan is in a zone above bath or shower it will need to be low voltage and there will be a transformer somewhere this may of failed.
