In an extraction fan installation, what is best practice or regs for cable coluring. ie switched live, perm live and neutral, which colour, brown, black and grey. should go to which.
Thanks
 
For the New "Killer Colours" then

Brown = permanent L
Black (sleeved Brown) = Switched L
Grey (sleeved Blue) = N

The Old Colurs were

Red + L
Yellow (Sleeved Red) = Switched L
Blue (Sleeved Black) = N

Anthough in R Y B the Blue was often not sleeved Black in practice and left as Blue = N
