My wife recently decided that she wanted a ceiling fan over our kitchen table (vs the basic light fixture there before). Installed one earlier in the week and within the 1st 15 minutes there was a mild electrical burn smell. I pinpointed the smell to the fan motor. Took down the fan and had my wife return it. Installed the replacement fan that night and it is doing the same exact thing. I've played around with it and so far the issue only seems to occur when running on high speed. There are no other signs of an issue (actual smoke, sparks, excessive heat, etc...). Wife spoke to a guy at Lowe's (don't know I trust his expertise) and he thinks the issue is our electric (the wiring). I don't know enough about electrical to fully vet this out but I can't logically see how the wiring could be an issue when the fan is on high but for no other time or with basic light fixtures.
Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
