Hi folks,
Have an electrician coming round soon to do the second fix of my outbuilding but need to put up the plywood walls and hence do the socket cutouts etc before he comes. One of the cables running from the small CU feeds an extractor fan, which I want to control through a humidity sensor like the Sonoff THR320D. From what I can find on the net, it runs 'in-line' with the T&E cable (one end in from the CU and another out to the fan) which means I would have to cut 2 small holes for entry and exit of the cable through the ply? Unless anyone has any better ideas?
Secondly, as per an example internet pic below, it seems the switch just has the actual individual cores running into it individually, which looks a bit raw? Is this right, as the rest of the switch is designed to be on display but the wiring part looks like it's meant to be hidden inside a box or behind a wall?
Appreciate any advice or if anyone's got something similar?
Thanks
