A 240 volt street light circuit is wired in parallel connections. In the base of the street fixture an inline fuse is connected into the circuit that goes up to the fixture to protect the lamp head.
The wire size depends on how much current it will conduct.
Filament. Correct; made of tungsten wire in most incandescent bulbs.
In residential wiring the white wire is neutral on the 120 volt circuits. On a 3way circuit the red is the traveler and the white is neutral. On a 240 volt 3 wire connection the white & black are hot. On a 240 volt 4 wire connection the black and red are hot and the white is neutral.
Depends on the size of the circuit which you did not list.
The recommended wire size for a 220 volt circuit according to the 220 volt wire size chart is typically 10 gauge wire for a circuit with a maximum of 30 amps.

Most car batteries are 12 volts. They can light 12 volt bulbs. The bulbs in your house are likely 120 volt bulbs. A car battery will not light those without some very special equipment, or unless you were to wire ten car batteries in series.
The recommended wire size for a 220-volt electrical circuit is typically 10-gauge wire.
The recommended wire size for a 30 amp 220 volt circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
The appropriate wire size for a 220 volt 30 amp circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
Modern light bulbs are made of tungsten wire.
For a 220 volt circuit with a 30 amp capacity, the appropriate wire size would be 10 gauge wire.
A simple circuit contains: Power source - battery, wall outlet Path - wire or other conductor Load - light bulb Start with a small light bulb... see if you have extra bulbs for the car, tail light bulbs for example. Hook one wire to a pole on a 9v battery, then the tip of the light bulb's connection end. Then a second wire on the side of the bulbs connection end, and return to the source.
For a 30 amp 240 volt circuit, a wire size of 10 AWG should be used.
For a 220 volt circuit with a 40 amp load, the appropriate wire size would be 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wire.
