Another question for your collective wisdom, I'm afraid.
I'm replacing a slighty pathetic 4" shed extractor fan, mounted in the bathroom ceiling, with an inline Manrose 150mm fan (SF150S) which will be mounted in the loft and will probably vent directly out through the roof. The existing fan was wired directly to the light, no delay, with a short length of lighting flex directly from the light itself. We're planning on putting in a humidistat
- Put a junction box into the lighting circuit in the loft
- Run a spur, using lighting flex, to an isolator, (such as
- Run lighting flex from isolator to the humidistat (only live core connected) and from humidistat to fan to provide switched live feed to fan
- Run lighting flex from isolator to fan for permanent live and neutral feed
Does this sound sensible? Are there any flaws?
One last question: the contacts within the humidistat are flat copper tabs with a small (~3mm) hole. What is the best way to connect the cable to these?
Cheers - Adam...
