Discuss Loop into Fan in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I have posted this years ago, it is the way I wire fans which gives the fusing required by a lot of manufacturers and the isolation required allowing the light to operate when the fan is isolated, a lot more convenient at night if you only want the light on.
Really only for new work or very straightfoward to do if there is an easy route from switch to existing isolator. It looks busy but the only difference between this and what is usually done is that instead of running a 3c from switch to isolator you run 2 x 2c, one is taking the supply l & N, the other is a switch wire for the now fused L to and from the switch
