If the tri-light needs a new lamp holder try any reputable lighting house store. These types of retailers have all of the parts that you need to repair any lamp configurations. The new switch will have a rotary switch built into it just like the lamp had when it was new. There are only two wires to connect to it. Don't disconnect the old one until you have the new one and just put the wires on the same terminals as the they are wires on the old switch.

Can you use g9 bulb on a dimmer switch?

It is generally not recommended to use a G9 bulb on a dimmer switch unless the bulb is specifically marked as dimmable. Using a non-dimmable bulb on a dimmer switch can cause flickering, buzzing, and even damage to the bulb or the dimmer switch. Always check the bulb packaging to ensure it is compatible with dimmer switches before using them together.

What if your switch is on but the bulb is off?

There could be a series of problems. First, are all the wires hooked up? Is the bulb burned out? Is it just the switch that is not working? You should go and put in a new bulb, and see if it was just burned out.


Why does a light bulb light up immediately after you turn on a switch even if the switch was a long way from the bulb?

When you flip the switch, it completes the electrical circuit and allows current to flow instantly through the wires to reach the light bulb, causing it to light up. The speed of electricity traveling through wires is almost instantaneous, so the light bulb lights up immediately after the switch is turned on, regardless of the distance from the switch to the bulb.

What is the difference if a switch is before or after a bulb in a circuit?

It is a safety concern. With the switch before the bulb, the bulb is completely isolated from the potential source when the switch is turned off. With the switch behind the bulb, even if the switch is turned off, the potential source is still at the bulb. If any of these lamp holder parts touch the ground when removing the bulb the circuit will short out and trip the breaker. If you are grounded and touch any of the lamp holder parts you will get a nasty shock.
