What is the practical unit of electricity?

'Electricity' is not a quantity, so cannot be measured and, therefore, has no unit of measurement. It is the name of a field of study, just like 'chemistry', etc.A 'unit' of electrical energy is short for 'Board of Trade Unit' (a former government organisation that, at one time, set energy prices in the UK), and is exactly equivalent to a kilowatt hour, which is defined as the amount of energy consumed, over a period of one hour, at a rate of one kilowatt. A unit or kilowatt hour is equal to 3.6 million joules (a joule being the SI unit for energy), and normally costs around £0.15 to buy.
