How many amps in a 40 watt light bulb?

A lumen is the perceived intensity of the light, as seen by the human eye. The lumen value is largely determined by the the nature of the light, i.e. the sum of the different wavelengths of the light being transmitted by the particular bulb type.The standard tungsten wire-filament ('incandescent') bulb radiates a different type of light to a flourescentlight.* a 230 V, 40 watt incandescent bulb produces a light (quality) of about 400-500 lumens,* a standard 230 V flourescent lamp of only 7 watts will produce exactly the same value of lumens, i.e. 400-500 lumens. * the cool white XLamp XP-G 3.5 V LED lamp of only 3 watts will produce a similar value of lumens, i.e. 350 lumens. And is safer for the workers that make them and better for the environment. It is currently more expensive, but prices have been dropping about 20% per year. Therefore LED light bulbs convert electricity into light more efficiently than incandescent or florescent light bulbs. * For more information, See Related links below this box

What is easier to install an incandescent light bulb or a fluorescent light bulb?

It depends. If you have a compact fluorescent bulb, it is about the same difficulty level as installing an incandescent bulb. If however you are installing a 4 foot long fluorescent tube, it may be considered a bit more difficult because there are 2 pins on each end of the tube that have to line up on each end of the light fixture, thus it would require a bit more effort and coordination. Once you line the end pins up, you push the tube into the slot until it is fully seated, then you give it a quarter turn to lock it in place.


What is the standard distance from the bottom of a light fixture to the table?

There isn't one. I have a lamp that's got the bulb a foot from the table, and another one that's got the bulb two feet from the table. And if you go to the home store, you'll find even more distances between the bulb and the table.

How did Edison's light bulb work?

Electricity goes through the "electrical foot contact", heats up the wires (connected to the tungsten filament) therefore lighting the light bulb up. The filament is supported by wires. The glass mount holds up the two wires connected to the filament. That is how I think the light bulb works. Have a look.
