    The extractor can be removed from the ceiling exposing the hole it sits in. From there you can pull the wire to expose the transformer, or if it is built in just disconnect the 240v wires and replace with anything you want.


    The ducting is usually 100mm so any replacement will usually be the same.

    You’re allowed 240 volts in a bathroom, what do you think your lights are?

    This is what a Google search brings up.

    The 12 Volt (SELV AC) fan is suitable for mounting within the splash area of a shower or bath, where current regulations prevent the use of conventional fans.

    That's within the splash area, the extractor electrics is above the ceiling.
