In my basement I have 4 incandescent lights that are controlled by one dimmer switch. Recently, one of the lights stopped working so I went to the local home depot and purchased a new one. When I was attempting to take the light bulb out of the fixture that wasn't working there was a bright flash, and all of a sudden none of the 4 lights are working. The dimmer switch that controls the four lights is a "lighted" dimmer, and the light on the dimmer switch is still working. I assume this means that the dimmer is still working. I removed the fixture that was broken and tested the wires with a multitester, and I get no reading. I have tried flipping the switches on the circuit panel, but this has done nothing. If anyone can help me figure out what my problem is, it would be greatly appreciated. Craig

I wish to extend an existing circuit in my house which presently has a 15A Circuit breaker , 120V supply. I wish to add a couple of 75W Recessed lights to the circuit - presently the circuit has hardly anything running off it ie <1800Watts ... so adding the recessed lights shouldn't be an issue ... This is how I'm going to potentially add them with a switch ... source switch B-----------{}------B---|light|--|light|-WN W-------------------W---| |--| |-WN The switch will have a ground screw on , and all lights will be grounded. B - Black (Hot) W - White Neutral WN - Wire Nut Does the above circuit hold up ?
