What are Kilowatt-second and Kilowatt-hour

Definition of Kilowatt-second

A Kilowatt-second (kWs) is a unit of energy equivalent to one thousand watts being expended for one second. It's a measure of power over time, which can be used to quantify the amount of work performed or energy converted. As a lesser-used unit, it often requires conversion to more commonly accepted units like Kilowatt-hours for practical applications.

Definition of Kilowatt-hour

A Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy that represents the power of one kilowatt (1 kW) being expended for one hour (1 h). Predominantly used for electricity billing and energy consumption, it quantifies the amount of energy used over time. The kWh is an essential unit for understanding and calculating energy usage in residential and commercial settings.
