Sorry another question...I notice only one blue and one black. Where are the others please? I'm thinking one black from the fan and one from the cable and then same with the blue. But I only saw you put the nut on one pair. Thanks for your video and for your help.

Hi, as my fan has no lights there are only 3 wires a Black ( Hot) ,White (Neutral ) and Green ( Ground) ,If you have lights or a remote there may be more wires.

I think I may finally have found the video that will help me. Should I be searching in the attic for a similar box like that one you were testing the wires in? I've been up in the attic before and never noticed any of those boxes. My home is older though, more than 40 years old. I am wanting to install fans in bedrooms that never had them...never even had ceiling lights. It's near midnight my time watching your video and I probably won't get in the attic for a few days but are you saying as long as I find a switch with those holes I can use? no chance of overloading that switch?

If you are talking about a bathroom exhaust fan, that will be a different installation then the one I did.

@@AMMO1234 no, not a bathroom exhaust, the same fan you installed in your garage my 3 bedrooms need them. I popped my head through the attic door and looked around but didn't see a box like the one you hooked into. I need to keep looking I guess.

The receptacle you're taking the power from will have 3 items running at the same time, the fan, the garage door opener and it looks like one other item. Is there no chance of overheating the circuit? or as long as there are those available holes it's ok to add to it? Sorry, I'm a total novice and trying to do this on my own.

Hello Yes I have 2x garage door opener 1 fan and a outside plug on the line ( wire) . In Ontario Canada we are allow 12 outlets on a 15 Amp breaker, Each outlet = 1 Amp for a total of 12 outlets = 12 amps ( 80% load). I have 2 x Garage door opener = 8 Amps ( 4 Amps each), 1 fan = 1.5 Amps ( if it had a light that would be 1.5 Amps More) and a outside plug for a fountain with Led light 2 Amps for a total of 11.5 Amps as long as I am under 80% load or 12 Amps I am fine. You will have to check what load is on the line ( wire/Plug) you will be using to see how much Amps are being used. You need to check your Electrical Safety code to be sure. I hope this helped.
