One neutral (white), one ground (green or bare copper), and three hot (black, blue, brown leads connected to the switch, one for each function). Secure the electrical wires to the housing with an approved electrical connector. Make sure you leave enough wiring in the box to make the connection to the fan’s receptacle.

2.From where you have access to the fan’s junction box, connect the white wire from the house to the two white wires from the fan. Connect one hot (black) wire from the wall switch to the black wire from the fan (this is the fan control). Connect second hot (blue) wire from the wall switch to the blue wire from the fan (this is the main light control). Connect the third hot (brown) wire from the wall switch to the brown wire from the fan (this is the night light control). Connect the ground wire (green or bare copper) from the house to the green wire from the fan (Figure 6). Use approved methods for all connections.
