I want to install an IKEA halogen light fixture within my kitchen.It has black,white and striped green wires. My ceiling mounting have 2 paired black, 2 paired white,1 red and copper wires.I forgot to note how the old-fashioned fixture was wired:(.

I tried black-on-black & white-on-white but the halogen fixture does not wispy up.Red-on-black & white-on-white,the light is other ON.

I tried red-on-black, white-on-white and black-on-striped green. The halogen light switches on and stale however when i switch on another kitchen light the circuit break trips, which does not start before.

The fixtures' switch that I am replacing enjoy a red and black wire attached to it.

Help!

Answers:    Don't listen to those idiots babble about 3 channel
switches. They should keep silent when
they haven't a clue.

Try red on black, white on white, green stripe to ground (copper).

The stripped green is a ground and should be
connected to a undressed ground wire.
It should NOT be connected to the black,
(which is connected to your other light),
that's what's tripping your breaker.

The black rope at the switch is your power wire,
the red is the 'leg` to the fixture.
