Can you mix bulb wattages in a 5 head floor lamp?

There is no electrical reason why this can not be done. Just remember that increasing wattage will add more draw to the circuit. If the circuit that the fixture is on has other loads, the circuit could be overloaded and may trip the breaker.


What is the name of the wire piece that goes around a light bulb that holds a lampshade?

The flexible wire in a lamp is called the filament. the word means 'thread-like', and it comes from the fact that you need a particularly thin section of wire in order to get the metal to incandesce (glow) at relatively low wattages.


How much electricity can run on 15amp breaker?

Since baseboard heaters come in many different wattages vs. lengths I guess the best answer would be, you can load up to 2880 watts of baseboard heaters on a 15 amp two pole breaker at 240 volts.


How do you change the halogen light bulb in your garden sensor?

The bulb will be held in place by two spring loaded pins. Slide it to the left or right and it will come out. Take the bulb to the store, there are several sizes and different wattages. Check the fixture to see if there is a maximum wattage. NB do not touch the new bulb with your bare skin or it will not last. pinch the end of the halogen tube (the white plastic bit) and slide to left or right, whichever way the spring holder will give. use a clean tissue to place the replacement back in.


How many kW generator for a home?

You have to make a decision as to what you want to make your priority loads. Once you have established this, add up all the load wattages. Use the following formula if you can not find what the wattage load is from the nameplate of the device. W = amps x volts. Generators are rated in wattage. Your load wattage total must be under the load wattage capacity of the generator.

What will happen when two resistors with different wattage rating will be connected series?

Resistance wise, the rated wattages are immaterial. When calculating the amount of power the two of them would be able to dissipate, (or the maximum current) you would have to use V=IR and P=VI to work out which resistor would run into it's wattage rating first.
