Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience of Xpelair bathroom\shower fans? In particular the XIM100+T model.

I've got one I'm trying to install but the labels for the connectors don't match the instructions!!

On the fan I've got labelled

T (Black wire)
L2(Blue wire)
L1(Grey wire)
N (Brown wire)

Some how the instructions don't have this exact model, nore does the Xpelair website, but both of them have the following wire spec...

T (Black wire)
N2(Blue wire)
N1(Grey wire)
L (Brown wire)

Anyone know which is right? The techincal helpline is closed at weekends!!

Thanks,

Tescor

Can't help even though I work for a vent company (just don't take to do with wiring at all!)

Free bump nevertheless!

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately that matches the diagrams in my instructions. The problem is, I've bought a model that isn't listed on either - XIM100+T confused

Don't want to guess wrong and blow the thing up, so this will have to wait until Monday when I can phone them...

i would guess going by the colours of the cables (as an electrician)
T (Black wire)
N2(Blue wire)
N1(Grey wire)
L (Brown wire)

T= timer- perminant feed to run on running timer.
N2= neutral
N1= neutral link
L= switch wire (live)

If the above does not work try swapping the "T" termination with the "L" as sometimes the terminals are called T= Trigger / Switch Wire (to trigger the timer function) and L as the permanent Live. Either way the N1 & N2 are a looped Neutral.
