How about "volts"? I don't think "amperes" is what you had in mind.
Here in America, we are resistant to change; period!
We are the only large country that has not embraced the metric system. The entire world uses 50 Hz 220 Volt power except for in the USA and a few other places.
It won't run a microwave at all. Microwaves require an a.c. supply of 230 V (Europe) or 120 V (N America).
In Canada and the United States, wall outlet voltage is standardized at 110 to 120 volts (anywhere in that range is considered "OK"). In Europe - most of the rest of the world, actually - it is standardized at 220 volts.

"va" is volts x amps, so you need to know the volts to get the amps. If you're dealing with houshold power, the volts will be 120 or 240, depending on where you live.If it's North America, 150va will run 150/120 = 1.25 amps. In the EU it would be .625 amps.
Small generators are sized in watts. Watts is the product of amps times volts. To properly answer this question a voltage for your 10 amps must be stated. That said small generator outputs are usually 120/240 volts in North America. So 10 amps at 120 volts equal 1200 watts. 10 amps at 240 volts equal 2400 watts. A 3000 watt generator will be amply for your 10 amp load.

It depends where you bought it. In North America, its rated voltage will be 120 V whereas, in Europe, its rated voltage will be 230 V.
In Europe, 230 V is the normal domestic supply whereas in the US it is 120 V. For an appliance of a certain power rating, the current taken will be inversely related to the voltage, by Ohm's Law, ie power = volts x amps. So the current at 230 V will be in the ratio 120/230 of that taken at 120 V

250 V is not a nominal voltage used in Europe or in North America, although it may be elsewhere in the world. If so, then, yes, there will be 100-W lamps marketed for that particular voltage in that particular part of the world.The nominal voltage in Europe is 230 V and the nominal voltage (for lamps) in North America is 120 V. So, in Europe and North America, 100-W lamps are rated at 230 V and 120 V respectively.

North America is at 60 degrees north and 120 degrees west.

In North America 120 volts, in the UK and Europe 240 volts.
