    New Chandalier
    I was rewiring my chandalier and accidentally touched the ground from the chandalier to the hot black wire and tripped the circuit, since like a dummy I had not already done it. I rewired it and everything is working fine now. Is there anything else I need to do? I always get paranoid when deeling with eletrical how do I know if I did it right? Is it right as long as it is working?

    Thanks in advance for any help!
