Electric power (how fast energy is being converted into or out of electrical energy) is measured in Watts. Electrical energy is measured in Joules. i Watt for 1 second is 1 Joule. 1000 Watts for 3600 seconds is 3.6 Megajoules, also known as a kilowatt-hour or a Unit of electrical energy.
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
We need to be able to measure electrical currents, because this will give us the capacity to control it. As soon as we can measure it , we will be able to predict the behaviour and the effects of electrical current on our electric equipment, and on the wires that carry it and so, we will be able to design proper electrical circuits and devices. Also we will be able to calcullae the cost of operating any electrical appliance. Plasma TV, LightBulb, etc. Electricity is invisible, and we can not control what we don't see . But if we have measurement equipment we will be able to sense it , and then we will control it. Learning electricity is easy as soon as we learn the meaning of the main units of measurement : Amps, Volts, Ohms, Watts, and Watts per hour. Also it easy to learn to work with the few and simple equations that explain the laws of the electrical energy : Like this one : Voltage = Current * Resistance Power = Voltage * Current Resistance = Voltage / Current Current = Voltage / Resistance Current = Power / Voltage Electrical Energy = Power * hours (of operation)
Electrical pressure force is measured in volts (V). It represents the potential difference between two points in an electrical circuit, which drives the flow of electric current. It is a fundamental unit of measurement in electricity.
The volt is a derived unit of electrical potential. It is equal to joules per coulomb, or kilogram meter squared per ampere second cubed.
Power is simply the rate of doing work or of heat transfer. Accordingly, there is no such thing as 'electrical' or any other sort of power. Power is simply a rate, and its unit of measurement is the watt (symbol: W).
Voltage- the measurement of electrical 'pressure'.
Voltage is a measurement of electrical force and amperage is a measurement of electrical flow. They are two different things altogether.
Ohms are the unit of measurement for electrical resistance. It indicates how much a material resists the flow of electric current.

The unit of measurement used by an ohm meter to quantify electrical resistance is ohms ().
resistance to an electrical current
yes
A yrneh is a reciprocal unit of measurement for electrical inductance.
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.
Hall effect devices are useful for sensing and measurement: electrical current, electrical power (with separate voltage measurement), magnetic field, movement, and position.
Thermocouples and resistance thermometers are both methods of electrical temperature measurements.
