Joules to Kilowatt Hours - Convert j to kwh

Joules (j) Conversion

A joule is an SI unit of measurement for work or energy, which equals the work done by a force of one newton acting to move an object through a length of one meter in the direction of the object’s motion. In the terms of electric currents, a joule is the energy dispersed as heat in one second by a current of one ampere through a resistance of one ohm.

Kilowatt Hours (kwh) Conversion

A kilowatt-hour is a composite unit of electrical energy equal to one kilowatt (1 kW) of power sustained for one hour, exactly 3.6 megajoules of energy, or about 3412.141 Btu. It is used to indicate electricity consumption.
