That depends on the voltage.
The average yearly electrical consumption around the world for those areas that have electricity is 3,500 kilowatt hours. In the United States the average is almost 11,000 kilowatt hours.
The term killowat simply means 1000 watts. Watts are computed as volts times amps. A load of one killowat used for one hour consumes one killowat hour of energy. That would be 60 killowat minutes, however that measurement is seldom used.
The short form for kilowatt is kW.
8500 BTU is equivalent to 2.49 kWh (kilowatt-hours).
watts or kilowatts are used to measure power, which is how quickly energy flows, and electrical energy is measured in kilowatt-hours. A kilowatt-hour is also known as a Unit of electrical energy, and it is the amount of energy used when a power of 1 kilowatt flows for 1 hour.
watts are equal to amps times volts.
Amps can not give you a kilowatt with out a voltage being applied to the question. Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = 1000/ Volts.
On 120 v a kilowattt is 8.3 amps, on 240 v it's 4.15 amps.
watts = volts x amps kilowatt = 1000 watts
A battery stores charge and supplies voltage and current. A kilowatt (KW) is a measure of power = Volts x Amps.
BTU and kilowatt-hours are measures of energy, while power is measured in either kilowatts or BTU per hour. 1 kilowatt-hour is equal to 3412 BTU, or 1 kilowatt equals 3412 BTU/hr. 8000 BTU per hour is equal to 2.344 kilowatts, which is 19.53 amps at 120 v.
Amps is a measurement of current. Watts (or kilowatts) is a measure of power. To get the power from the current, you have to know the electrical potential or volts used to produce the current. Amps × Volts = Watts (or Current × Electrical Potential = Power). Incidentally, a kilowatt is 1000 watts, so you'll have to divide your answer by 1000. e.g. if your volts is 40, then 25 amps × 40 volts = 1000 watts. 1000 watts (divided by 1000) is 1kw or kilowatt.
No, amps (amperes) do not directly express the difference in energy. Amps measure electrical current, which is the flow of electric charge. Energy is typically measured in units such as joules or kilowatt-hours.
The meter on the side of your house is a watt meter. You are charged for the electricity that you use in kilowatt/hours. See related links below
A kw (kilowatt) is 1000 amps x volts. If you assume your one phase system has 120 volts, then divide by 120. Cheap, but close enough for most work, assume 100 volts, then each amp is a tenth of a kilowatt.
Amperage (Amps) is a measure of current flow Voltage (Volts) is an electrical measure of difference in potential Wattage (Watts) is a measure of power which is energy per unit time A kilowatt equals 1000 watts Kilowatt Hour (KWH) is a measure of energy (Watts x hours/1000) The relationship is: Power (Watts) = Voltages (Volts) x Amperage (Amps) Therefore, Amps = Power (KW) x 1000 / Voltage (Volts)
Watts = Amps x Volts. 33 x 240/1000 = 7.9 Kw
