Kilowatt (kW)

The kilowatt (symbol: kW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 1,000 watts:

Kilowatts are widely used to measure the power consumption or output of household appliances, small engines, and electric tools. For example, a typical microwave oven might use about 1 kW of power.

In electricity billing, power usage is often measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh), which reflects energy consumption over time.

The kilowatt is a practical unit for everyday energy use, bridging the scale from watts (for small devices) to megawatts (for larger power generation). It helps people understand and compare the power ratings of common electrical equipment.

Dekajoule per Second [daJ/s]

Dekajoule per second is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI).

• 
  

  Dekajoule (daJ) equals $10^{1}$ joules (10 joules).

  
  
• 
  

  When expressed as daJ/s, it measures the rate of energy transfer or work done at a scale of dekajoules every second.

  
  
• 
  

  Since 1 joule per second = 1 watt, then:

  
  

This unit is used to express relatively small power values, such as in low-power machinery or devices.
