The basic unit of energy is a Joule (J), which is equal to one watt of power expended for one second. In the day-to-day scenarios such as household electricity consumption, joule is too small a unit to be convenient. For billing and metering purpose, it is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Electrical energy is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh) as the commercial unit. 1kWh = 1000 W * 3600 s
For calculating the units consumed, we will be using the following formula
Units = [Power (W) x Time (h)]/1000
