What pull switch do i need for a timed bathroom extractor

Hi Tom As answer above any switch will do.Its not a special switch because you have a timed extractor fan.The fan just has 2 lives at it,a switched live so it comes on with the light and a perm live to keep the fan running after you turn the light off. Thanks

Hi Tom, You can get any pull cord switch for your bathroom extractor fan (maximum current 10Amp), but I'd recommend you to get a decent one like MK or one on which the clank of the switching contact is silent and it doesn't echo in the whole house when you pull it. Regards,
