How many watts are in 13A switch socket outlet using 220 v?
Watts from a socket is dependant upon what the load connected draws. The maximum capacity from a socket is calculated by the following equation, W = A x V. So the maximum wattage you are able to draw from the socket before the fuse blows is W = 13 x 220 = 2860.
What wattage of bulb do you need to fit in a socket that has 120volts?
120 volts is a standard voltage in US for normal house hold electric outlet. , So you can buy from 0 watts to 1000 watts for 120Volts socket .

Can you use 5 60watt bulbs in a light fixture that is wired with 18 gauge wire?
Two thoughts here, one the fixture should be rated at the maximum wattage allowed for the socket the bulb screws into. A label should state "maximum wattage allowed". To do a calculation Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts. 5 x 60 watts = 300 watts. 300/120 = 2.5 amps. The electrical code only rates down to #14 wire which is rated at 15 amps. From here you have to make the decision.

What would be the maximum rating of the incandescent bulb for a dimmer switch?
Find the wattage rating on the dimmer controller. This is the maximum allowable wattage that the lamp in the fixture should be. Lamp wattage ratings under the rated dimmer wattage is fine but do not install a larger wattage lamp that is over the dimmer control's rating.
