[QUOTE="marknw, post: 492656, member: 32367"] Hello and happy new year. Hope someone can help with an odd issue please. I'm replacing an Xpelair extractor fan in the loo witn an Airflow Icon15. Problem is, the new fan runs at about 0.5 revs/sec, and i dont understand why. If i connect it to a 3 pin plug it runs normally, but wired up in the loo it doesn't. Voltage in the loo is 242v, like the wall socket, so there isn't a transformer anywhere. Any ideas please? Supplementary question - assuming problem is solved: I'd like to add the 2-minute delay module to the fan, but this requires L, N and T feeds and there are currently only L and N: can I legally add another live, or is that an electrician's job?
