Hi
I want to replace the extractor fan that I inherited in my bathroom, which has now broken. It had a timer on it. It came on when the light was switched on and then turned off a certain amount of time after the light was turned off.
The old one currently has 3 wires attached to N, L and LS.
The new fan needs to be connected to Neutral, Permanent Live and Switched Live. I'm assuming L = Permanent Live and LS = Switched Live. Would you agree?
However, having read some similar posts on this site, I'm thinking that there should also be another earth wire. The other posts suggest that this should be folder over and kept away from the other 3 wires.
I've added some photos. Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks
Rich
