How much current does a 250W M V lamp fitting draw?

To calculate the current drawn by a 250W MV (metal halide) lamp fitting, you can use the formula (I = \frac{P}{V}), where (I) is the current in amperes, (P) is the power in watts, and (V) is the voltage. Assuming a standard operating voltage of 230V, the current would be approximately (I = \frac{250W}{230V} \approx 1.09A). Therefore, a 250W MV lamp fitting draws about 1.09 amperes at 230 volts.
