110volts x 15amps(typical)=1650 Watts draw.
That's a lot of lightbulbs.
Unless there's something else heavy operated by the same dimmer circuit(not allowed), no single light fixture should pull near that much.

It could be a bad dimmer switch with a short, it could be something else. Nothing should get hot to the touch. DO NOT USE and kill the breaker if possible. Call the company for someone else.
