Electricity consumption or, more accurately, energy consumption is measured in units called joules (J), although electricity supply companies use a bigger, non-SI, unit called the kilowatt hour.
A kilowatt hour is defined as 'the energy consumer, over a period of one hour, at the rate of one kilowatt'.

A unit of measurement that describes the rate that electricity flows through a wire is a?
Ampere
Metric electricity measurement whats it called juel or somthing?
The unit of measurement for electrical energy is called the "joule" (not "juel"). The joule is the standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after James Prescott Joule, a physicist who contributed to the understanding of energy and thermodynamics. In the context of electricity, you might also encounter other units such as kilowatt-hours (kWh) when measuring electrical energy consumption, especially for larger amounts of energy.
How much is 110.00 in pound?
You can convert one unit of measurement into another unit of measurement, such as kilograms to pounds, but you cannot convert a number into a unit of measurement, such as 110.00 to pounds. At least, not unless I want to guess what unit of measurement you are using (kilograms?).
What does cubic unit mean?
Cubic unit means the measurement of objects using height, length, and width. It is a unit of measurement used for capacity or volume.
Is voltage the force that causes motion?
no, the force that causes motion is called inertia, while yes voltage is needed to make things work, it is also a unit of measurement for electricity.
What is the unit of measurement for ohm?
An ohm is a unit of measurement! It is a measurement of resistance to electrical current.An ohm is the unit to measure the resistance of electricity between two conductors.
A unit of measurement that describes the rate that electricity flows through a wire is a?
Ampere
What is the metric unit of electricity?
There is no "unit of electricity" metric or otherwise. There are units of measurement for electric charge (coulombs), potential (volts), current (amperes), energy (joules) and power (watts).
What does the term OHM mean?
It is a unit of measurement to measure the resistance an object possesses when electricity flows through it.
Unit of electrical energy used at home?
The unit of measurement for electrical energy used in the home is the kilowatt hour, and this is the unit which the electricity supply company uses to work out your bill.
What unit of electricity measures is used to measure the power consumption of a device?
The kilowatt hour (KWHr) measures electricity use.
Are feet considered a unit conversion or unit of measurement?
unit of measurement
WHAT IS KGA in unit of measurement?
what is KGA in unit of a measurement
Is a pencil a unit of measurement?
No, a pencil is not a unit of measurement.
What is the unit of measurement that for measuring elcetrical force?
If it's an actual FORCE you want to measure, the unit would of course be the newton.However, I strongly suspect that you are really referring to some other property of electricity. Things you can measure about electricity, and the corresponding units, include: * Voltage (volts) * Current (ampere) * Energy (joules - though the unit kWh is used commercially) * Power (watts) And many others more.
What is the unit of measurement for forcr?
The unit of measurement of force is 'Newton'
What are the units of measurement for electricity?
The SI units used in electricity include: coulomb- unit of electrical charge volt - unit of potential (joule/coulomb) ampere - unit of current flow (coulombs per second) watt - unit of power (volt-ampere) ohm - unit of resistance farad - unit of capacitance henry - unit of inductance siemens - unit of conductance
