Hi all,
I'm new here and looking for a bit of advice. I have a bathroom extractor fan with it's own independent pull-cord switch (see pic). There is also an isolator switch outside the bathroom. I'm doing some renovation and wondering if the isolator is actually necessary if the fan itself has...

The fan only had 2 wires - a black and a red.
It has an isolator switch outside the door in a twin switch plate shared with the...
My bathroom light went last week. I believe it's a "2D" bulb - the full model number on the bulb is F28W2D/835.
The bulb had gone black at one end, which I'm guessing is what happens when one of these blows?
I've bought 4 different replacements this week, but none of them are working.
One...
