Situation:

Circuit Breaker fails and circuit seems to be dedicated to 6 or 8 Recessed Fixtures on 2 slide/preset dimmers. Breaker is clearly no good.

First course of action taken is to remove wire from breaker and test (for short) resistance (with Fluke digital MM) from circuit wire (Blk) to neutral bar with dimmers switches off and then on at full. Expect to see Lamp resistance in the teens maybe, but it is up in the Megaohm range. Why?
Must be Electronics inside? is that it?
What makes 'em tick? (How?)
