Definition
Watt
(a) The practical unit of electric activity, rate of work, or rate of
energy. It is the rate of energy or of work represented by a current of
one ampere urged by one volt electro-motive force; the volt-ampere.
It is the analogue in electricity of the horse power in mechanics;
approximately, 746 watts represent one electric horse power.
Ohm's law, taken as C = E/R, gives as values for current, C and E/R, and
for electro- motive force C R. In these formulas, C represents current
strength, R represents resistance and E represents electro-motive force.
Then a watt being the product of electro-motive force by current
strength, we get the following values for rate of electric energy, of
which the watt is the practical unit: (1) E2/R -- (2) C*E -- (3) C2 * R.
The equivalents of the watt vary a little according to different
authorities. Ayrton gives the following equivalents: 44.25 foot pounds
per minute--.7375 foot pounds per second--1/746 horse power. These
values are practically accurate. Hospitalier gives .7377 foot pounds per
second. Hering gives .737324 foot pounds per second, and 1000/745941
horse power.
It is equal to 1E7 ergs per second.
Synonym--Volt-ampere.
(c) It has been proposed to use the term as the unit of energy, instead
of activity or rate of energy (Sir C. W. Siemens, British Association,
1882); this use has not been adopted and may be regarded as abandoned.
[Transcriber's note; Watt is a unit of POWER--energy per unit of time.]

Kilowatt-hour
A kilowatt-hour (unit symbol: kW⋅h or kW h; commonly written as kWh) is a non-SI unit of energy: one kilowatt of power for one hour. It is equivalent to 3.6 megajoules (MJ) in SI units. Kilowatt-hours are a common billing unit for electrical energy supplied by electric utilities. Metric prefixes are used for multiples and submultiples of the basic unit, the watt-hour.
