Bathroom Extractor Fan Wires

The one that was connected to switched live and neutral respectively.
Can't tell by looking any more so do you have a meter?
Is there any Isolation switch upstream? The Black or Grey should be the Neutral and switched live but impossible to be certain.
One should have been sleeved blue and one sleeved with some brown to denote it's a switched live.

Ah bugger I should have taken a photo before it was removed.
I can get one, that will tell me?
Yes there is an isolation switch outside the bathroom for the fan
Have a look inside, that might/should tell you what you need to know
Presumably that cable goes to the fan isolator. The other cable from the fan isolator hopefully goes either to the light or to the switch where you can see what is connected to what. Turn the power off and look inside, and post photos.
The wiring in the fan isolator might give a clue, but you can't be sure that the wires are necessarily connected to what they say they are!
