Hi again, thanks for replies and sorry for delay in responding (I have been away) went in loft today and went burrowing under 10" of new horrible insulation, found that the lights are fed by a single neutral from a JB and single red and earth to switch and then to light fitting. ( no...

I have looked at hundreds of threads in this and other forums but can not seem to find a definitive answer. I am about to fit an in-line fan with timer in bathroom, I have done this many times before so know the general Idea,(about 30years ago) but now the MI's are stating an FCU with 3amp fuse...

Thanks, I was thinking of breaking into the switched live before the existing light with a junction box to avoid having too many cables in the light fitting which is a bit tight as it is hence not wishing to use the existing lights nuetral and earth? does this sound logical :?: Dawnsdad
