Assuming that your voltage is 120 volts the maximum wattage on that circuit is W = A x V = 15 x 120 = 1800 watts. Code only allows circuits to be loaded up to 80% capacity. 1800 x .8 = 1440. 1440/25 = 57 lamps.
Assuming that your voltage is 240 volts the maximum wattage on that circuit is W = A x V = 15 x 240 = 3600 watts. If the question is from a 240 volt country you will have to find out what the local electrical regulations are for circuit loading.

What is the use of parallel circuit?
It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit... for example: 1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out 2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on
When you add more bulbs to a series circuit?
Wiring bulbs in a series is useful in certain applications. For example decorated lighting on holiday trees using multiple bulbs on a single circuit. This is useful by keeping the circuit linear and simple and allows for a single switch. The disadvantages to having multiple bulbs on a linear circuit is that if one bad bulb turns off the whole circuit.
When do you use a circuit?
Anytime you ask electricity to do anything for you. Turn on light bulbs, start a car, run ann engine, watch TV. Anytime electrical power is used.
Is ttl combinational circuit or sequential circuit?
it can be either, depending on parts used in the circuit and their connections.
Why are LED connected to a circuit not a light bulb?
The power consumption of the led is very low and the life of LED bulb is high. Hence LED's are used as cost saving and energy saving measure and not hte conventional incadscant indicator bulbs. ...
Is a series or parallel circuit used for filament light bulbs?
parallel
Can bulbs be used in the same circuit with LED's?
If your reference to bulbs is light bulbs then yes they can be mixed. The led lamps have to be ballasted to use them in home lighting.
How many 100w light bulbs connceted 6a circuit?
On 120 volts seven could be used, on 240 v fourteen of them.
Can halogen bulbs be used as replacements in an emergency flasher circuit that is triggered only when needed to summon help scents in an emergency flasher circuit?
Don't understand the question fully but halogen bulbs can replace incandescent bulbs and is 30% brighter for the same electrical power.
What is the difference between 15 amp and 20 amp service?
It is the rating of how much current you can deliver to loads on a circuit. For example, if you had 10 outlets on 20 A service that is what you could run from the outlets on a circuit. This is a total capacity and not the capacity of each outlet on the circuit. If you plugged something into an outlet that drew 20 A you wouldn't be able to run anything on other outlets. In a lighting circuit two 60 W incandescent bulbs draw one amp. Therefore, on a 15 A lighting circuit you could have a maximum of thirty 60 Watt bulbs. Usually you try and stay at about 80% of rating so practically you could have 24 bulbs. ponypomp; 5 amps. A 15amp breaker is used with 14ga romex wire, designated in homes for lighting. Common practice. A 20amp breaker is used with 12ga romex wire ,designed for the outlets in a home. Common practice. Just wanted to add this to the great post above.
Would you use Series or parallel circuit for Christmas lights?
Yes you would use a serial circuit You would use parallel circuit lights for a Christmas tree because if you used series circuit lights, and one of the bulb blows, the rest of the bulbs will go out. But with parallel circuit lights, if one bulb blows the rest of the bulbs will remain their brightness.
What can circuit diagrams be used for?
Circuit diagrams, also known as electric diagrams, show the inside of their circuitry. It's mostly used to explain how the basics of circuitry work or how light bulbs light up.

How must a bulb be connected in a circuit?
It depends on the circuit design and ratings, and what you expect from the bulbs. Bulbs connected in series with each other will have the same amount of current flowing through each one, but possibly differing voltages dropped across them, depending on their ratings. Also, with bulbs connected in series, if any single bulb burns out, or is switched off, or is removed from its socket, then all of the bulbs in the series circuit go dark. Bulbs connected in parallel will have the same voltage across each one, but possibly differing currents through them, depending on their ratings. Always check what type of circuit is in use and what it is designed to do, and ensure the appropriate rating of lamps are used.
