It can be if you connect two same watt lamps in series with each other. The 240 volt supply will drop 120 volts across each lamp.

A pin based fluorescent light fixture is the type of fixture that takes fluorescent tubes. On each end of the fluorescent tubes there are contact pins. These pins are used to hold the tube in the fixture and to supply the voltage to the tube from the fixture's ballast.
No, they are not designed to be used outside and can only be used inside.
It is a fixture that has a hermetical seal that keeps fumes and vapours from the electrical parts of the fixture. A good example of a vapour tight fixture is one that is used in paint spray booths. These types of fixtures are not to be confused with explosion proof fixtures which are in a different category altogether.
Yes, you can easily use it. Just install it as you would any other 120 volt light fixture and change the bulb from a 240 volt bulb to a 120 volt bulb. It will work just fine.
If these are all the wires you have then this would be a great assumption. It assumes also that everything before the fixture is wired correctly and with commonly used color schemes.
To attach a 120V light fixture to a 277V system, you will need a step-down transformer with a 277V primary and 120V secondary. This will allow you to safely power the light fixture at the correct voltage. You do not need a ballast in this case, as ballasts are typically used with fluorescent lights and not for altering voltage levels.

Yes, European light fixtures can typically be installed in Canada. It's important to ensure the light fixture meets Canadian electrical standards and is compatible with the voltage used in Canada (usually 120V). You may need to make sure any necessary adapters or converters are used. It's recommended to consult with a licensed electrician for installation to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
A single pole 3-way switch can be used to control a light fixture from two different locations by connecting the switch to the light fixture using three wires instead of the usual two. This allows for two separate switches to control the same light fixture, providing convenience and flexibility in turning the light on and off from different spots in a room.
Yes, LED light bulbs can generally be used in any fixture that is compatible with the bulb's size and wattage. However, it is important to check the fixture's specifications to ensure compatibility and proper functioning.
No, they are not designed to be used outside and can only be used inside.
The plural of the noun candelabrum is candelabra (candle tree, a light fixture).The term candelabrum refers to a single part of the fixture, or a candlestick, and is seldom used to refer to the fixture.
No, you cannot install a dimmer switch on any light fixture. The fixture must be compatible with a dimmer switch and the switch must be rated for the type of light bulb being used. It is recommended to consult a professional electrician for proper installation.
Very easy to do. Remove the two cap screws from the lens fixture (uses a 6mm socket, I believe). Very carefully use a flat tip screwdriver to gently pry the fixture from the underneath side of the trunk lid, and it should hang down with the light fixture attached to it. The fixture is made of a rubber-like plastic, so gently working it side to side will free it from the lens fixture. Remove the bulb from the light fixture by pulling it straight out (looks like an ancient camera bulb). You could use a 161 or 168 light bulb, but I used a 194 bulb (costs a little over $2.00 at O'Reillys) to reinstall into the light fixture. Going in reverse method, place the light fixture into lens fixture, and reassemble the lens fixture back to the trunk lid. Piece of cake!
No, it is not possible to install a dimmer switch on any light fixture. Some fixtures may not be compatible with dimmer switches due to the type of bulb or wiring used. It is important to check the compatibility of the fixture before attempting to install a dimmer switch.

A single pole 3-way switch can be used in a lighting circuit to control the flow of electricity to a single light fixture from two different locations by allowing the switch to be turned on or off from either location, providing flexibility and convenience in controlling the light fixture.
