Hi,
In an old kitchen there is a fan connected (to the light circuit), the thing is that the instructions I have are to change the one gang light switch to 2 gang where one will be for the light and one for the fan, there is a need to connect a 3P isolator for the fan instead the ceiling rose (the fan is activated by a pull cord), there in no effect on the fan from the light switch, the fan gets the 'live' from it.
Can someone explain how this connection has to be done, according to BS 7671, and if there a basic diagram to show the wiring configuration?
Thanks
Albert
