I need to add gfci protection to a bath fan I need to replace which is located in the shower. I wanted to have it so that if the gfci tripped it wouldn’t put the entire bathroom in the dark. There is a four gang that controls all the lighting in the bathroom. Single pole for a vanity light, a single pole for a recessed light, and two single poles that control the fan and light of the exhaust fan. I was planning on doing a switch over switch to make room for a blank face gfci. I never wired one of these before. I’m planning on taking the neutral from the feed and hit the neutrals of the two single pole switches (Vanity and recessed) and the neutral of the line side of the blank face, I would then put the neutral of the 3-wire from the exhaust fan on the load side neutral of the blank face. I would then pigtail the black of the feed and hit the two single poles and the line side of the blank face gfci. Then finally run a black wire from the load side of the blank face gfci to feed the switch over switch. Then obviously put the black and red of the 3-wire from the fan on the load sides of the switch over switch. Will this work okay?
