  1. Hi guys, i got my 4'' bathroom extractor fan today and have tried to wire it up, it has 3 terminal blocks inside, L,N,LS, I just used 2 core wire as advised with a 3amp fuse for the plug. as i want the fan to be constantly on. I wired the blue (neutral) into N, and the brown (live) into L of the extractor and it sparked and burned the block connector and the tip of the blue (neutral) wire, i cut it back and cleaned it up and its still not working, fig 4. seems to be my model of fan, it has a built in timer also. i cant seem to understand the diagram, i have uploaded pics, if anyone can help i'd really appreciate it

    my burned terminal block ;)
