Re: Ceiling Fan Wiring
The blue wire is usually for the light kit.
Both together if it has lights and fan hooked to single switch. If you have seperate feeds for power - one to black, one to blue so they operate independantly. Good luck with your new breeze. |

Re: Ceiling Fan Wiring
Yea, what he said, and, don't forget, a standard light box is not approved to support a ceiling fan.
