Correct-- the other half of the panel is dead.

Do you have the metal ceiling box grounded with a green
10/32 screw?


No, I was planning to do that when I installed the fixture, but
it is easy enough to add.

your grounds should be spliced correctly for rough inspection.


All of the grounds are spliced using the crimp connectors.

I am surprised that the crimp-style connectors would be
considered incorrect. I always thought them superior to
wire nuts. I would have used standard wire nuts except on
the advice of an experienced electrician.

Thanks for the tips!
