Changing the ceiling fan

Hi I would like to change one fan in my living room and one in bedroom. 

Which one of the switch I should turn off before I start working on changing the ceiling fan.

I would like to stress that Bunnings Workshop members should always use a licensed electrician for any electrical work. Don’t ever undertake electrical work yourself (or use a tradesperson who is not licensed). Performing electrical work youself puts you and your family in serious harm.

 

Stay safe,

Thanks, @Jason I consulted a licensed electrician. He is coming to fix this. Cheers.

Generally ceiling fans are run off a lighting circuit, as in the 10A breaker, (4 from the left).

I hate to think what's in behind that panel, it looks like it was made up on the fly.............
