Yes, the wattage is just the power consumption. A 30 watt Fluorescent will give more or less the same light as a incandescent bulb or 60 watts, which is the limit for your fixture for incandescent bulbs.

Can you use a 65 watt fluorescent bulb in a metal halide light fixture?
No, the ballast's output is not matched to operate a fluorescent bulb.
Can you use a 67 watt light bulb in place of a 60 watt bulb?
yes, it can be used - single phase voltage of 230v. 50HZ is important
What watt fluorescent bulb can you use to replace a 60watt incandescent bulb?
fluorescents are about 5x as efficientso a 12W will give about as much light
Which light wastes more energy 40 watt candelabra or 60 watt energy saving fluorescent?
It is not a waste of money if you need the light but that being said, the higher the wattage usually reflects in a higher cost to the consumer. To answer this question the voltage and current of each device should be stated so that calculations could be made. An energy saving fluorescent is driven by an internal ballast and it is the ballast input current that is needed.
How many kWh will a 32 watt fluorescent bulb use?
A 32 watt bulb uses 32 watt-hours, or 0.032 kWh, every hour it is used.

What size amp circuit breaker do you use on a 55 watt fluorescent light?
A 55 watt fluorescent light only pulls 0.4 amps. Lights can be installed on a 15 amp breaker using 14/2 wire. A maximum of 1440 watts is all that is allowed on a 15 amp circuit.
Can you use a 36 watt fuse for a 40 watt fluorescent bulb?
Fuses are not rated in wattage, they are rated in amperage and voltage.

Which type of light bulbs use ¼ of the energy used by incandescent bulbs?
Incandescent bulbs use 75-100 watts. Fluorescent bulbs use around 10 watts. LED bulbs usually use 1 watt.
Can you use a 60 watt light bulb in place of a 67 watt bulb?
yes, it can be used - single phase voltage of 230v. 50HZ is important
Which save more energy incandescent light bulbs or fluorescent?
Fluorescent light bulbs use less electricity for the amount of light produced.
How do energy efficient light bulbs work?
Light bulbs always use energy. Therefore to save energy they should be switched off. But certain types of bulb use much less energy than others: Incandescent: 10 lumens per watt Halogen: 13 lumens per watt Fluorescent: 50-60 lumens per watt (cheap to buy) LED: 50-70 lumens per watt (expensive to buy)
Do fluorescent light bulbs use nuclear energy?
They use electricity
