As Ed said, you can plug quite a few light bulbs into a single power point. So for your 40 bulbs at, say, 40W each you will only draw 1600W, which is 6.7A. A power point can easily deliver 10A. Now if the lights came with mains plugs, you could just use distribution boards to achieve what you want and save the cost of an electrician. |
