Don’t have any dash, dome or tail lights when headlights are on?

First off everyone I’m still in the very rudimentary learning phase when it comes to electrical in the car. I have a lot to learn so if it’s not explained in steps and clearly I get lost. Sorry about that but I’m just being honest and really trying to learn. I also know that fooling with electrical without disconnecting the power isn’t smart. I was foolish when first tightening down the hot wire connection to the back of the alternator and that is why there was a spark off the wrench. It wasn’t a big spark and very quickly I pulled away. I don’t see any damage to any wires or leads. First step I will definitely check the fuses first. I also have read that the one post off the back of the OEM style alternator is for the positive(hot) connection and for the ground connection. I’ve read that the ground connection to the alternator has to be from the alternator to the engine block? Also the ground has to be contacting through bare metal and unpainted surfaces? I think that maybe the ground isn’t secure properly and maybe not heavy enough guage wire. My alternator has been rebuilt and puts out about 60 amps. I have a probe testing light and volt meter. Thanks again gang for all the help with everything.
