If you know what you're doing, you can probably accomplish that in a 1A circuit.
No, it is not safe to install a 20A outlet on a 15A circuit. The outlet should match the circuit's amperage to prevent overloading and potential fire hazards.

The National Electrical Code (US) allows up to thirteen 20 amp receptacles on a 20 amp circuit. 120V x 20A = 2400 VA each duplex receptacle is calculated at 180 VA 2400 / 180 = 13.3333 receptacles, since you can't put a third of a receptacle in, you have to round down to 13.
Go to your distribution panel and shut off the breaker that you think is the circuit in question. If the circuit becomes de-energized then the breaker you just turned off feeds that circuit. Look on the handle of the breaker and the number you see is the amperage of that circuit. <<>> Determination of a 15 or 20 Ampere circuit is normally indicated by a combination of a 20A breaker and a 20A dedicated outlet. A 15A circuit normally has multiple outlets; not typical in a 20A circuit.
No more than 13.
It will depend on how big the circuit is if its a 20a no if its 40a yes!
20 amp circuit breaker
No, you cannot run a 110V 20A circuit off one leg of a GE THQP 220V 20A breaker. A 220V breaker is designed to provide two hot legs, each supplying 110V, but when using only one leg, it does not provide the proper grounding or neutral configuration needed for a standard 110V circuit. Additionally, this could lead to potential safety hazards and code violations. Always consult a qualified electrician for proper circuit configurations.
Usually 15A or 20A, but it depends on the wire used.
No, it is not safe to replace a 125V 20A fuse with a 220V 20A fuse. Fuses are designed to protect electrical circuits from overloading, and using a higher voltage fuse could lead to damage or fire hazards in the circuit. Always replace a fuse with the same voltage and amperage rating as the original.
150W = 240 volts * .625Amps. Assuming the 20A breaker trips at exactly 20A, 20/.625 = 32 lights.
You have to replace the wire (as you are increasing the current capacity), the outlet, and the breaker. Essentially you have to remove the old circuit and put in a new one. You can't reuse parts of the old circuit as you are increasing the current capacity and they would be underrated.
