Hi
I have a replacement fan/light to install - on the wall are two switches that control the old fan and light
On the new fan there is a live(brown)/neutral(blue)/earth(green/yellow) connection -
coming from the roof from the old fan is 3 core and earth - red, blue, yellow and bare (yellow/green cover)
So do I connect the Red to the Brown terminal
Blue to the Blue
Yellow/Green to the Yellow/Green Earth
then what to do with the spare Yellow?
Into a terminal choc block on it's own? is it now needed?
Means just one of the switches on the wall then turns on the fan/light (which is on a remote conttrol)?
Fan has 3x2 choc block with blue, earth,brown going into it
The wire in the ceiling is old style 3 core- red, blue, yellow and earth
