BG 804 TRIPLE POLE FAN ISOLATOR PULLCORD SWITCH

Product Information

For clarity I intend to connect these or other wires to a fan isolator switch on the other side of a stud wall.

As described above, I connected the fan through the fan isolator switch to the pull cord with 1mm three core and earth cable.

Specification

An extractor fan was fitted as part of the job and the electrician has fitted a pull cord fan isolator switch in the bathroom. This means that there is 3 pull cord switches hanging from the ceiling which looks really messy - fan isolator / shower isolator / lights I know that they could have fitted a light switch outside the bathroom to get rid of one pull cord but surely would have been neater to fit a regular isolator switch either in bathroom (outside of zones) or just outside bathroom door

First of all is it a run on fan that has been installed if it was then the sparky should have fitted an isolater for isolating live feed to fan run on facility out of zone areas The cable running from the fan to spot 1, spot 2 and finally towards the pull switch is using a single brown wire for the switched live and a single blue wire for the neutral. Two other cables are also looped between the spots. So just to clarify for me please, a switched 3 pole isolator can be fitted in the bathroom, provided that it is out of zones 1 & 2My sister asked the firm if they could fit a switch isolator but was told "no switches in bathroom" The only other terminals are com and what appears to be a symbol with a number of horizontal deminishing lines with one vartical line above, or otherwise, depending on how you look at it? This issue has been discussed loads on this forum, I see Seneca's post above regarding this but would bet that more often than not, a 3A fused spur is not used And this switch will be a double pole and the other side will isolate the fan when the switch for light is operated by breaking the feed from light to fan,this giveing full isolation

I may take the issue up with the bathroom firm on behalf of my sister, just wanted to make sure that I have the correct facts Walls were dot, dabbed and plaster boarded before tiling so even chasing out walls for cables was not needed However the existing pull cord I have does not have an insert or screw at L2 to secure wires with? I'm not sure if they were there before I started, or not? Is she being fobbed off here ? I think so and would you guys fit a pull cord isolator, resulting in 3 pull cords

If I wish to isolate the fan, am I correct in saying I will have to disconnect the cable from the fan to spot 1 and and run a new twin core and earth (switched live/neutral) from the fan towards the pull switch (actually isolator) or should I just disconnect both (green) cables and run 3 core and earth instead? I've seen plenty of bathrooms with fan isolator switches fitted, usually high up next to fan or above door and out of zones Have read this issue before regarding M I and fan protection via 3A fuse. No sign of this and as I'm sure is pretty usual, the supply has been taken from the lighting circuit and so protected with a 6A breaker at CU
