It depends, oist microwaves are rated in watts, a measurement of power usage. The lowest a microwave could be is a 300watt rating. I'm not sure of the highest bur mine is a 950watt. 1 watt is equal to one joule of energy a second. So a 950 watt microwave converts 950 joules of electricity into microwaves every second.
