Hello All,
I'm guessing this is perhaps very straight-forward for many of you. I have the following brushless Adda extractor fan, measuring 120mm x 120mm x 38mm. It is 230V ~ AC, 1 phase 0.18/0.12 A:

As you can see, the fan unit is "stand-alone", in that it contains only the spade pins, presumably requiring female spade adaptors. My goal is simple: I need to provide power to it. There doesn't even have to be anything as elaborate as a switch.
I have, so far:
- A 13 amp plug
- Twin & earth cable, 5m, 1.0mm
I was looking on Maplin for spade connectors, but am not certain at all as to which kind are suitable. If some kind soul would be good enough to offer how I can reach my goal I would be most grateful.
For those who think it is necessary to know, or just plain curious, the fan is to be used in a home-made spray booth with the purpose of extracting harmful paint fumes. (In fact I've got 3 fans which I'm going to run). I've made sure to source brushless fans such that there is no risk of any exposed spark igniting any paint vapour (not that there should be a cat in hell's chance given the small quantities, but better safe than sorry of course).
Any help would be most warmly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Steve
