Ceiling Fan Diagram (Switch Loop)
This ceiling fan wiring diagram can be used if the power source is supplied to the fan fixture. This wiring configuration is a bit limiting as the fan and light are controlled from a single switch. In this case the fan and light must be set to a desired mode using a pull chain/chains or wireless remote and then the switch is used to turn the entire fixture on or off.
