Is it possible to extend a cable connecting an extractor fan in he bathroom. I purchased a Soler & Palau silent 100 model and as it was replacing a very old model I got an electrician in to do it. The fan had be fitted on it's side as the installer said the cable wasn't long enough. however the fan looks strange on it's side due to the fact that the logo and led are now on their side. i know it's not a big deal (and it's not really) but I just wanted know whether the wire could be safely extended and if so how? The installer said he didn't want to mess around extending wires!!
