Hi all, wonder if someone can help me.

I've bought a bathroom extractor and I do have the wiring there already (previous extractor was there) but I stupidly did not review it before taking it off and now I'm lost.

I've essentially got a single light switch outside the bathroom which controlled extractor and light. Timer stayed on for 10 mins after light was off.

I have the Live and Neutral in for light switch.

Live, Neutral and Earth for junction box on the light.

3 core for the extractor.

How do i connect it? Or should I get a spark?

I was told a fused spur isn't necessary (saves me a lot of hassle as fully decorated)

Thanks!

Because it's a timed fan, there will be a switched live from the light switch and a permanent live for the timer part, along with neutral and earth.
