I am installing a new porch fan. The romex to the box in the ceiling
connects directly to another box in the attic and from there to the

I plan to put a remote control assembly above the ceiling, so there
will not be anon/off swich to the fan other than the remote 'clicker'.
Is it acceptable to have the 'clicker' on/off remote (located inside
the house) as the only means to turn the fan on/off, other than at the
main breaker?

Can't answer your code question, but I guess I'm showing my age 'cause
I'd think a pull chain switch on the fan motor would be simpler.

Unless of course you can't easily install such a switch on the existing
fan or you're seeking security against unauthorized folks controlling
the fan. G
