How do you change a 3 wire cealing fan circuit to a 2 wire light circuit?

Sure; the fan has 3 wires so you can wire the light and fan separately, but if you don't have that option, you don't NEED to put the fan and the light on separate switches.
You can always turn the light or fan on/off using the pull strings.

What number wire gauge for a single pole light switch?
In residential wiring applications the most used is 14 gauge wire for light switches as long as the circuit breaker or the fuse is 15A. If your lighting circuit is on a 20A fuse/circuit breaker then you need to use 12 gauge wire
How do you power an outlet from a one wire light switch on same wall?
The one wire carries the electricity or voltage. The lamp is grounded completing the circuit. You don't. The light switch is only half the circuit, a lamp has nothing to ground to so it can not work. If the wire to the switch is 3 wire, the bare wire would complete the circuit and power the plug, but it would not be up to code and could present a fire hazzard.
How do you pull 1 of 6 lights off a 3-way switch and add a single switch for that 1 fixture?
One 1,000 watt light will push a typical circuit breaker close to its limit. Six such lights will require wiring and circuit breakers to handle the load. Figure one circuit breaker per light. That means not only six switches but six switches, each on a different circuit breaker. Don't overload the wiring or it could cause a fire.
What parameters do you change in volume control ventilation to increase expiratory time?
what is the purpose of a heated wire circuit
What does it mean when the circuit tester light does not come on when touching the black and white wires?
It could mean two things. The first thing would be that the tester is not working. Test on a circuit that you know to be energized. The second thing causing a tester not to light is that the circuit under test is de energized. When using these types of testers always test the black to white wire and then black to ground wire. If the tester indicates there is a voltage to ground and not the white then the neutral white wire is open somewhere in the circuit.
How do you change wire fuse for circuit breaker?
A circuit breaker does not have a wire fuse in it.
Why is earth wire not needed in a light circuit?
A ground (earth) wire is needed in not just a light circuit but in all circuits that are now installed.
Why the bulb is not lighting when one wire or terminal is not connected?
When one wire or terminal is not connected to a light bulb, it is not possible for electricity to complete the circuit. When a circuit is not completed, the bulb will not light. An off switch, for example, breaks the circuit.
What grounds the tail light circuit?
A ground wire is normal.
What are the basic parts of a circuit?
Switch Light Wire battery
A complete circuit is made of three things?
If you are talking about the light circuit then : The Battery, The bulb and the wire.
3 things in a complete circuit?
battery, wire, and light bulb
What number wire gauge for a single pole light switch?
In residential wiring applications the most used is 14 gauge wire for light switches as long as the circuit breaker or the fuse is 15A. If your lighting circuit is on a 20A fuse/circuit breaker then you need to use 12 gauge wire
Is the amount of current that flows in the wire of electric circuit the same as the current that flows in the filament of the light connected in that circuit?
yes

What materials are needed to light a bulb in a circuit?
batteries, wire, connectors, and light bulbs
Why dining room lights go on and off intermittently?
Check for loose wiring at the light itself and also at the light switch. There can also be a loose wire anywhere in the circuit supplying power to that light switch. Start at the light itself and work backwards in the circuit until you find the loose wire.
