That depends on the wiring, the light socket, switch(es) and any other equipment in the circuit.

You should never use a bulb that is larger than the original circuit was designed for.

How many 12 volt 50 watt bulbs can be used on the 100 va transformer?

To determine how many 12-volt, 50-watt bulbs can be used on a 100 VA transformer, first convert the transformer's capacity from VA to watts, which is effectively the same for resistive loads (100 watts in this case). Each 50-watt bulb requires 50 watts, so you can divide the total available watts by the wattage of one bulb: 100 watts ÷ 50 watts/bulb = 2 bulbs. Therefore, you can use 2 of the 12-volt, 50-watt bulbs on a 100 VA transformer.


Can you use a 10 watt 12 volt instead of a 5 watt?

Yes, you can use a 10 watt 12 volt bulb instead of a 5 watt bulb as long as the fixture can handle the higher wattage. Just be aware that the 10 watt bulb will be brighter and may generate more heat, so ensure there is proper ventilation and that the fixture can handle the increased power load.


Can you replace a 110 volt 35 watt halogen bulb with a 120 volt 35 watt bulb?

Yes, you can replace a 110 volt 35 watt halogen bulb with a 120 volt 35 watt bulb, as the wattage is the same. The slight difference in voltage (110V vs. 120V) generally won't affect performance, as most bulbs can operate within a range of voltages. However, ensure the fixture is rated for the wattage to avoid overheating. Always check the specifications of your fixture for compatibility.


How can you minimize the wastage of electricity?

Define "wasting electricity"? A 100 watt light bulb burning in the attic 24/7 is waste, if you ask me. If you mean "reduce electrical consumption"....yeah, lots of ways. Use 60 watt bulbs instead of 100 watt bulbs. Or better yet - use a flashlight instead of bulbs. Use a gas hot water heater instead of electric. Raise your AC thermostat 10 degrees. Use LED bulbs. Get rid of all your televisions. etc... etc..... You didn't say "...and be practical about it.


Will a 12 volt bulb get hot?

What is the largest number of 100 watt bulbs which can be used safely from a 240 volt supply using a 5 amp fuse?

12 bulbs, as P=vi, =240x5=1200, /100=12 though you should prob do less than this.
