RE: Re: CBus control of extract fans?



No - the isolator was required because effectively they are
"double fed"
with a permanent supply as well as the switched supply from the lighting
circuit that is used as a trigger.

The purpose of the specific extractor/fan isolator was to ensure that *ALL*
feeds to the fan were isolated.
