You can safely put 48 regular (incandescent) 40 watt lights on a 20 amp circuit. If at some future date you might place higher wattage lights in the circuit, you will want to limit the number of lights to 20.
The voltage needs to be known to give an answer to this question.
The low voltage needs to be stated of the 20 watt lamps.
50 watt equals less than 1/2 amp current flow at 120 volts so you can have 30 light on a 15amp breaker or 40 on a twenty amp breaker.
Remember that dimmers are for incandescent lights only unless you invest BIG BUCKS on dimmable fluorescent lights and fluorescent dimmers. Make sure that the switch that you replace with the dimmer does not control a plug-in outlet unless it is a lamp. You could do harm to an appliance not designed for such use. Otherwise,just add up the wattage of all the bulbs on the dimmer and buy one of the next size rating. So if you have two 60 watt bulbs, two 75 watt bulbs-- that's 270 watts total.Find a dimmer rated for 300 watts or more.
It will power two 400 watt lamps.
TWO
Yes.
An 8000 watt generator at regular house current 110v will supply 72 amps.
Yes. 65watts X 4 lights /110 volts = 2.3 amps
It is very easy to install regular 60 or 120-watt light bulbs on your own in your home. However, if you have longer lights or fluorescent lights, you may need assistance.
SAD lights are typically used for fish tanks or aquariums and these light usually generate about 73 lumens per watt. SAD lights in lamps generate more lumens then lights made for aquariums they normally generate about 10,000 lumens.
Lamps with five flexable lights that provide great lighting and come with shades and four way switches. The information below is telling you how brite the light will be if you used the same number watts in the lamp.

About 80 lumens per watt of electric power is normal for LEDs.
The voltage needs to be known to give an answer to this question.
LED light have a much higher light output per watt: luminous efficacy (lm/W). Incandescent lights have luminous efficacy ranging from 14 to 18 lm/W, whereas LED lights have a typical efficacy of 100 lm/W at high outputs. It means that a LED lamp of only 1/6 the watt rating can replace incandescent light bulbs.
It depends on the voltage and whether the lamps are actually 40 watts or 40 watt equivalent. Watts / volts = amps
If you have ten 20-watt lights running they take a power of 200 watts, continuously. If run for 5 hours they take 200x5 watt-hours of energy, which is 1000 watt-hours or 1 kilowatt-hour. That would register as 1 unit on a domestic electricity meter. This does not depend on the voltage of the lamps.
