Hi anyone who can help....I have a timed fan but cannot get to the lighting rose on the ceiling to wire it through.... i have a circuit in the bathroom which is powering the bathroom cabinet light...1mm T&E.....can i take it off that and how would i need to wire it?

I have the fan wired with 3core&E to the isolator and then not sure where to go from there....

Any help gratefully recieved :)

The bathroom cabinet light will probably be fed from the lighting circuit. If it is that's half your problem solved. That will probably get you a permanent live and neutral, and earth.

If you want the fan to come on and off with the light you'll need to run a cable from the light itself or from the switch. What you need from these is a switched live, and an earth.

Then follow the diagram with the fan, or the one in theh wonderful and much forgotten WIKI
