Default Fluorescent amperage

Fluroscents use little power I have about 20 in my shop on a single 15
AMP breaker.

The starting current is no doubt higher than run but the typical
breaker carries the load fine, like a slo blow fuse..

my fixtures are all old cheap ones dating back to about 1983 or so when
i started my business
