I'd started to answer before realizing there was a new page and @nefarious had beaten me to it:
- Yes if it's edison screw (centre connection should be live)
- Small. 3A is probably the most common for a lamp, and the current drawn by an LED bulb is very low though you might be using an older filament bulb.
- I've recently used one of these with a 1950s Anglepoise, though cable clamping is by a cunning half hitch rather than screws etc.

Also had to go back to an older glass bulb because modern LED things aren't heavy enough to balance with the existing springs...
