A kWh is a measure of energy, whilst kW is a measure of
power. Power is the rate at which energy is used. The

what is the difference between KW and KWh?..

Answer / manoj s patil

Let us take an example,
if you say 1kW,the device consumes energy of 1kJ of energy at 1sec. this tells you the power consumption.

if you say 1kWh, this means, the energy consumption is 1*3600=3600kJ of energy. this only tells the total amount of energy consumed.

if your house electric bill says 100kWh/month, then it means to say that you have consumed 360000kJ of energy.
