Hi all, I'm a newbie to the forum and I'm replacing a wall mounted extractor fan in the kitchen. The existing fan wasn't working when we bought the house, but it is wired on twin and earth cable and is switched off and on by an isolation switch (no pull cord). I assume that it didn't have a timer. The new fan does have a timer and so has a terminal for a 3 core cable (L1, L2 N). So my question is, because I'm not too concerned about the timer facility can I get the new fan to work just by connecting it to the existing cable? If so, would I just connect the live supply wire to L1 (switched live) in the fan. Even if this works is there a better solution?
