How to connect a three-arm chandelier to a single-key switch?

Irina asks:

Hello. I have a 3-horn chandelier and a single-key switch. There are two wires in the ceiling. We connected all the brown wires together with each other and all the blue ones too. The first time they connected it - the light did not come on (though I don’t know if it matters, the lamp was screwed into only one lamp). We decided to connect by swapping the ceiling wires (the lamps already screwed all 3) - sparkling, knocked out the machine in the shield!

How to connect? Tell me, please! Thank. And the chandelier comes with two small wiring harnesses: the first black 20 cm - blue and brown are inserted into it, and the second yellow-green 15 cm from one end of the pin, from the other ring. What are they needed for?

The answer to the question:

Hello! It all depends on how the wires are attached to the cartridges. Take a call and find out which wires go to the cartridges, and connect them like you connected them now, that is, all the cartridges in parallel. From each cartridge 2 wires.

Yellow-green wire - usually attached to the body of the chandelier to ground it, the ring is needed for clamping under a bolt, a pin for installation in the terminal block and connections to the grounding wire. Blue with brown is likely to connect power. I understand that these wires are included in the kit? So it is assumed that you twist the wires from the cartridges and attach to the two cores of this black ...

p.s. Maybe you already connected everything correctly, just the wires from the cartridges are damaged. And the fact that the bulb was 1 on does not matter.
