no the fixture has to be rated for the size and type of the bulb. most fixtures are not rated for 250W
A 15 amp switch can safely handle up to 1400 resistive watts.
No. Only replace lamps in a fixture that the manufacturer of the fixture recommends. By installing larger than recommended lamps this could create a fire due to the increase of heat generated by the over size lamp.
Yes, but the bulb will only operate at 60 watts and only in one of the switch positions. To shut the bulb off you will have to switch through the other two positions.
28,500 Lumens (approximately) there will be variance for other factors including manufacture.

If the 250 watt bulb is a HID or similar type the ballast comes complete with the fixture. The bulb socket is also part of the fixture and comes pre-wired to the socket. To connect the bulb to the fixture all that has to be done is just screw it into the fixture's socket.

The actual amount of light (lumens) given off by a bulb depends on the how the bulb was made and with what materials. It depends on the filament material, its length and thickness, and the type of gas in the bulb. As a rule, longer lasting bulbs of the same wattage will generally be less bright than others and brighter bulbs of the same wattage will not last as long as other bulbs.Sample lumen outputs:Sylvania 250 Watt Indoor Soft White 3-Way Bulb can emit 3940 lumens at its highest setting.Philips 250 Watt 120 to 130V PAR38 Krypton Flood Bulb emits 3100 lumens

+- 250 watt to 500 watt
250 milliwatts
No, the ballast has to be matched to the lamp. 250 watt ballast, 250 watt lamp. Also be sure to match the lamp type to the proper ballast even though the wattage is the same. HPS ballast to HPS lamp, Metal halide ballast to metal halide lamp and mercury vapour lamp to mercury vapour ballast.

yes, but a 251 watt works better
