Electric fan wiring

[lukeb]

Hi all,

ive got an electric fan but just want to wire it up as simple as possible. I have no relays or temperature sensor, and am not very elecritrically minded. So was wondering if i could do the following for the time being.

wire up the fan switch and battery.
wire the battery to the switch, switch to fan, and fan to earth.

with there being two wires on the fan is one power and one earth?

cheers

Be a good idea to include a fuse in there somewhere!
Connect thr wires which ever way makes it turn the right way.

ok aslong as it will still work and not blow the fan.
