Depends on the bulb. There are different sizes.
<<>>
It is not the wattage of the tubes that is the concern, it is the wattage of the ballast that is connected to the power source that has to be known for circuit loading. Look on the ballast and you will see an amperage that the ballast draws. Use the formula W = A x V to find the line side wattage. Once all of the wattage's have been added up use the formula; I = W/V, this will give you the amperage the circuit so that the wire size and breaker size can be calculated.
<<>> The power used by the bulb, in watts, should be printed somewhere on the bulb. A CFL like the one in the picture would use 15-20 watts.

How much total energy does a 60-watt fluorescent light consume?
Take a look at the units: 1 Watt = 1 Joule/Second A joule is a unit of energy. For example, 1 Joule = .239 calories = Therefore 60 Watts=60 Joules/Second So that means for every second, the light consumes 60 Joules. You must know for how long the light will be on to know how much energy will be consumed.
How much energy will a 100w light bulb convert to light and heat if it is left burning for 1hour?
Power = Energy/time 100W=Energy/360 Seconds Energy = 100/360 Energy ≈ 0.27 Joules
How much energy do street lights use?
Typically, street lights consume between 40 to 250 watts per hour depending on the type of bulb used (LED, fluorescent, etc.) and the specific design of the light fixture. This energy usage adds up over time, especially in areas where street lights are on for extended periods each night.
How long does it take for a 100 watt light bulb to cobsume 100 units of energy?
Simple 10,000 hours cause it completes 1 unit in 10 hours.....
What is the amount of energy used in one hour by 10 100 w light bulbs?
The total energy used in one hour by 10 100W light bulbs is 1 kWh (kilowatt-hour). To calculate this, you multiply the power of each bulb by the number of bulbs and the time they are on. In this case, 100W * 10 bulbs * 1 hour = 1000 watt-hours = 1 kWh.

How many kilowatts would a 400watt light use in a hour?
A 400-watt light uses energy at the rate of 0.4 kilowatt. In 1 hour, it uses 0.4 kilowatt-hour of energy.
Which bulb lasts longer an incandescent light bulb or a compact fluorescent light bulb?
A regular incandescent bulb uses a lot more energy than a compact fluorescent to produce the same amount of light. Most energy used by an incandescent bulb is wasted as heat which does not give off visible light. Incandescent bulbs are cheaper to buy, but they have shorter lifetimes than other alternatives.

Does it take more energy to turn on a light then to keep it on for an hour?
i saw this on myth busters and it takes more energy to keep a light on.
How much does energy efficent light bulbs cost per hour?
There is actually no energy efficient light bulbs in a way to interpret in physical determination. Energy efficient means less Watts required per hour compared to non energy efficient.
What is the energy consumption of a 150 watt light bulb?
A 150 watt light bulb consumes 150 watts of energy per hour when it is turned on.
How long do fluorescent lights last?
Fluorescent light bulbs are extremely long-lasting. Most are designed to last over 10,000 hours. This comes out to approximately 416 days of continuous 24 hour usage. Even if used only 8 hours/day, the average fluorescent bulb should last over 3 years.
What happens to the energy wasted in a light bulb?
electircal or photo electrical energy. Photons are shot across from panel to another panel this sparking back and forth creates the light you see.Answer: Electricity is the energy input into a light bulb. It either heats afilamanet to produce heat and light, r excites the gas contained in the bulb (in flluorescent tube) to emit visible light directly or emit UV light which interacts with a phosphor coating in the tubes to emit light.
How many kWh will a 32 watt fluorescent bulb use?
A 32 watt bulb uses 32 watt-hours, or 0.032 kWh, every hour it is used.
How much electricity does a 33 watt fluorescent tube consume per hour?
A 33 watt fluorescent tube consumes 33 watt-hours of electricity per hour. It means it uses 0.033 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity in one hour.
