Watts, which is the SI Base unit for power, which is actually Work(Unit Joule)/Time(Unit Second) meaning 1 watt is equal to 1J per 1 sec. If you mean in terms amps or volts they are not the same. In basic household electricity this is a an average wattage object that uses a decent amount of power( considering a small light bulb only uses about 35-70 watts).

In physics Amps deal with charge and volts relate to potential difference of an object. However if you have 2 of these units (Volts+ amps, Amps+ Watts etc.) you can easily find the third by using this formula.

Power(Wattage)=Amps x Volts

Answer

A unit is used by British electrical companies to measure energy consumption, and is short for 'Board of Trade Unit'. A unit is equivalent to a kilowatt hour. A watt, on the hand, is used to measure power, not energy -so you cannot relate units to 940 -or any other number of watts.

Incidentally, a watt is not an SI Base Unit but, rather, a Derived Unit.
