Fan light combo switch wiring.

The control features a small rocker switch to turn the ceiling fan on and off and a slide knob for fan speed control. In this wiring the source is at the switch and 3 wire cable runs from there to the fan and light. The source hot wire is spliced to the black fan wire to hardwire it directly to the circuit and to a pigtail connecting the switch. Provides control of one ceiling paddle fan and 3 quiet fan speeds provide increased comfort.

The skylark fan control is designed to conveniently the skylark fan control is designed to conveniently set the speed of a ceiling fan. Usually the hot wire to the fan in a fan light combination kit is black while the blue wire is usually for light. I also used a diagram picture thanks for watching. Every wire connected to a switch are hot wires.

Hi randy there are two ways to wire a bath exhaust fan combo with the wiring layout you have described. These three in one fixtures work best when wired to a three function switch box allowing for individual control of the unit s functions from a single point. The neutral wires and ground wires are not connected to the switch. Combination light heater and fan units can be incredibly handy in smaller bathrooms and other home areas that lack heating and cooling vents.

The source neutral and ground are spliced through to the fan location. Wiring ceiling fans can seem complicated but the task really just depends on the type of fan you are installing and how you want it to operate. Then the white wire is the neutral which is connected to source neutral at the source or with the use of a splice in. You either extend the power from the light fixture to the exhaust fan location or extend the power to the wall switch.

Wiring a combination bathroom ceiling exhaust fan and light unit with the fan and light being controlled by separate wall switches is an easy project even for a beginner. I explain how i wired a ceiling fan on one part of the switch and the light on the 3 way part of the switch.
