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.

Pound-Foot per Minute [lbf·ft/min]

Pound-foot per minute is a unit of power that measures the rate of work or energy transfer over time.

• 
  

  Pound-foot (lbf·ft) represents the work done when a force of one pound-force moves an object one foot.

  
  
• 
  

  When expressed as pound-foot per minute, it indicates how many pound-feet of work are done every minute.
