This question is not at all crystal clear to understand because there are so many different things which can be measured when considering electrical circuits and equipment! Please see the answer to the Related Question for more information.
However, if you are asking about the unit to use for measuring an amount of electrical energy to be paid-for, many electric power utility companies charge their customers by 'The Unit'.
The term 'The Unit' is short for the now obsolete expression 'The Board of Trade Unit' and is a measurement of electrical energy used, equivalent to one kilowatt.hour. (kW.h).
1 Unit = 1 kW.h
