A fan isolator is a switch specifically designed to isolate an electrical fan from the mains supply. This allows for safe maintenance and servicing of the fan without the risk of electrical shock.
Fan isolators are typically used in residential, commercial, and industrial settings where extractor fans are installed, such as:
Safety: They ensure that the electrical supply to the fan is completely disconnected, allowing safe maintenance and repair.
Compliance: They help meet electrical safety regulations and standards, which often require isolating switches for fixed electrical appliances.
Yes, fan isolators must comply with the requirements of BS 7671 (the IET Wiring Regulations). The regulations mandate that fixed appliances such as extractor fans must have a means of isolation for safe servicing and maintenance.
Single Pole Isolators: Disconnect the live (phase) wire only.
Double Pole Isolators: Disconnect both the live (phase) and neutral wires, providing a more secure isolation.
