What is the amount of power consumed by a 60 watt 220 volt lamp when it is connected across 110 volt supply?
Power is consumed whenever a load is connected to the distribution supply panel.The load is usually controlled by a switch, contactors for motors or breakers located in the distribution panel. Load on line power is consumed, load off line no power is consumed.
A transformer must be connected to an alternating current (AC) supply of the correct voltage.
In North America the neutral wire is never fused. This is because of the three wire circuit that uses a common neutral. If there are two loads connected across a common neutral circuit and the neutral opens a 230 volt supply will be impressed across both loads as they are now in series with the supply. If both loads were balanced then the voltage drop across both loads would be equal. Dropping 120 volts across each load. Where the problem arises is if the two loads are not balanced and voltage drop goes higher than the manufactures recommended voltage, then the connected device could burn out.
You can measure the current and power of a 'power supply', using an ammeter and a wattmeter. With the power supply connected to its load, the ammeter must be connected in series with the power supply's input. The wattmeter's current coil must also be connected in series with the power supply's input, and its voltage coil must be connected in parallel with the supply, taking the instrument's polarity markings into account.
Generally, yes. If your devise will only draw 80mA, it will do it whether it is connected to a supply that is capable of supplying 300mA or 800mA. The amperage rating on the power supply is the highest current that it is rated for. It will easily and safely provide less current. The load that is connected to the power supply will determine the actual amount of current.
The voltmeter is connected across the supply and the ammeter is connected in series with the supply.
power factor meters are connected across the supply
opposes changes in current
When a lamp is connected to a power supply the total amount of light increases.
Supply
Adding additional lamps has no effect on the supply voltage supplied to you home. If the lamps are connected in series, then the sum of voltage-drops appearing across each lamp will equal the supply voltage. If the lamps are connected in parallel, then the voltage across each lamp will equal the supply voltage.

The voltages appearing across each branch of a parallel circuit will be equal to the supply voltage.
I dont know.... may be due to save money
Capacitors are said to be connected together "in parallel" when both of their terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other capacitor or capacitors. The voltage (Vc ) connected across all the capacitors that are connected in parallel is THE SAME. Then,Capacitors in Parallel have a "common voltage" supply across them giving: VC1 = VC2 = VC3 = VAB = 12V
A transformer must be connected to an alternating current (AC) supply of the correct voltage.
In parallel, each bulb will have full voltage applied across them. However, in series, the voltage across each bulb won't be the same as supply voltage. Thereby, bulbs connected in parallel will glow brighter.
