hi guys...i fitted a cooker hood today in my kitchen..just need to wire it up..anyway, just a few questions...
the electrician who rewired the house left a 3A unswitched fused spur just above and to the right of the cooker hood. Having removed the face plate..i see 2 live wires, 2 neutral wires and 2 earths.....the power cord from cooker hood has only live and earth....The 2 live wires are connected to L (Load in)..there is a vacant L in terminal.... can connect the live wire from the hood cord to this terminal , or does it have to be with the other 2 live wires (Load in)........the same is for the 2 Neutral wires..there is also a vacnat Neutral terminal...can i connect the neutral from the hood power cord to this or does it have to go with the terminal where the 2 neutrals are connected?
also
can you buy a 3A fused spur that has larger connectors at the back ?, ie where the wires are connected....i really struggled to get the wires back into the terminals as they are really thick....lol,
How do run the power cord of the hood through the 3A fused spur ?...i was thinking of cutting out a small section of the face plate of the spur and feed the wire in through that...is that ok ?
cheers
