Hello Guys I am new to the forum
I was looking for a little advise if possible. My bathroom fan isolation switch has cracked & was looking to get it replaced. I isolated the supply and inspected it. As it looked very simple to replace I purchased a new switch. The new switch arrived but it has a different configuration on the back to the old one.
The old configuration on the top row (off) from left to right is L1, L2, N,
The bottom row (on) mirrors the top row L1, L2, N,
The new switches rear configuration looks very different & does not mirror one another
The top row (off) has four terminals (L2 blanked) Lcom, L1, (L2 No screw), Lcom
The bottom (on) four terminals (L2 blanked) L1, (L2 No screw), Lcom, L1
I seem to have 3 x Lcom's (2 on the top row & 1 on the bottom row)
3 x L1's (1 on the top row & 2 on the bottom row)
with no L2's as they have no access to them & are blanked off.
Can anyone advise as to which wire goes to which terminal?
It is 4 core cable Live (brown), switched live (black), Neutral (grey) & earth (terminal block)
Many thanks
