Kitchen extractor fan

[Tweezer]

Hi I need to fit a humidistat extractor fan in the back kitchen, can I wire this into a junction box that runs from the main ring without an isolator?

You will need to suitably fuse the fan via a FCU in my opinion.

as pets says. use a SFCU instead of a JB. 3A or 5A fuse, depending on MI.

Thanks I’m confused what would feed the fused unit, I am fitting a junction box to the ring main anyhow as I need to fit another socket in the back kitchen so would it be safe to run the SFCU from the new socket even though this runs from a junction box?

spur off the existing socket (or from the cable with a JB) on the ring to the new socket. then from the new socket fit SFCU for fan.

Cheers for that
