Any network that uses a switch or router, but not a hub, to centrally and physically connect the nodes on the network. It is a physical star, but logically, the nodes communicate as a bus, e.g., each node communicates only with the switch to which it is connected; it is up to the switch to pass the information along another bus connection to another node. A hub, on the other hand, is both physically and logically a star, because all nodes connect to the central bus and the communication path is radiated from one node via the hub to all other nodes. Star-wired bus should not be confused with a star-bus hybrid, which is a network made up of multiple stars, each one connected to the next via a bus.

Why did the new light fixture fizzle out when you wired it?
You likely wired it wrong. Not sure what you mean by "fizzle out".
When lights are wired such that if one bulb fails the entire string of lights goes out they are said to be wired in?
series
How are loads or power-consuming devices usually wired?

What are smoke and CO2 detector code requirements?
The codes are local and may be different in each jurisdiction. Check with the local fire inspector. At any rate I recommend both, especially if you have a gas fired heating stove or fireplace for the CO2 detector. I have combined detectors everywhere. The other question is if local code requires a hard wired detector with battery backup.
What are Resistors wired in series?
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
