Cause you blew the fuse, The switch may not be off but there is a break somewhere in you circuit and will not work. If your circuit isn't working and all the switches are closed (on) You probably have a series circuit. meaning one wire is connecting all your electric currents and keeping it flowing. But if you had a parallel circuit you would have lights, so if your still wondering why your lights aren't on? you probably need to by new wires/circuits or just replace the whole thing.

How do you wire flood lights to existing lights?

You would need to check for other lights on the same circuit or switch, but it would seem to me that you have power coming into the box (black and white) and a power out going to another box or light. You would use wire nuts to connect the black and white wires from your floodlight to the existing ones.


How do i install a dimmer switch for light 3 locations?

To install a dimmer switch for lights controlled from three locations (also known as a three-way dimmer), first, turn off the power at the circuit breaker. Use a three-way dimmer switch compatible with your existing three-way switches, and then connect the dimmer to the common terminal and traveler wires from the other switches according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure all connections are secure, attach the switch to the electrical box, then reinstall the other switches. Finally, turn the power back on and test the dimmer functionality from all locations.

Can you splice a switch from a switch for a different light?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.You can if the "hot" wire comes from the distribution panel or from an unswitched source directly to the switch box. The switch box has to be a two gang box to hold both switches. The "hot" wire is pigtailed to two six inch pieces of wire. These two feeds are then connected to the top terminal of the switches. The switches are now in parallel with a common feed. The bottom terminals of the switches are then connected to the appropriate lighting loads.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
