  • [q]I believe the BS 7671:2018 may have a relevance, under regulation 115.1.[/q]
    Yes, but how is that related to the claimed Building Regulations regarding fans?


    [q]As for the regulation about fans and operation there is no regulation regarding this but I am sure you knew this,[/q]
    So why are people stating that Building Regulations say this or that when they do not?


    [q]But if you choose to install one, a electrician should install it as per the regs. and then 134.1.1 would come into play don't you think.[/q]
    Yes, The Wiring Regulations. There are no Building Regulations stating what has been claimed.


    [q] And shame on you saying the IET prints wives tales,[/q]
    Oh dear. Where do the Wiring Regulations state what I called an old wives' tale?


    [q] I am sure that would come in to maintainability? 132.15.201 perhaps.[/q]
    The MCB covers that.


    [q] if the light is off some one may assume all lives are isolated. and I am sure no skilled person would install a fixed appliance with out having local isolation[/q]
    The Wiring Regulations do not require local isolation for any appliance.

    However, the question remains that people have claimed The Building Regulations state requirements for fans and their operation.

    They do not.
