Hi Guys,
I have two ceiling fans and a speed control unit which switches on the fan and allows you to control the speed of the fans. Speed Control Unit Model is RV-05 2A max, 480W - with Forward / Reverse and OFF switching.
I only have T&E from the switch to each fan (2 x Switched Lives which are connected together to make both fans live when switched)
I have left the Reverse function disconnected (as I don't have 3-core and Earth cable installed) at both the Speed Control Unit and the Fans, so all I'm left with is switched Live "Forward".
It's fed from a 5A Fused Connection Unit.
Problem is that one fan is running at a considerably faster speed to the other one. When I turn the potentiometer on the switch to lowest setting, one fan is faster than the other.
To solve the problem I thought about disconnecting the switch wires and taking one pair of switch wires to another switch next to the existing switch, so effectively I will have one switch for each fan - but before I do that I'd like another opinion please!
Thanks
Paul
