Convert Kilowatt-hour to Joule (kW*h to J)

The calculator-online helps you to perform instant and accurate conversions between kilowatt hour (kwh) and joules (j). You can try an online kilowatt hour to joule converter that helps in converting the value of energy kilowatt-hours into its equivalent joules energy.

Also, the below-mentioned formula for kwh to joules is simple that allows you to do conversions for these units of energy.

Now, let’s define the basic definition of these both energy units.

Kilowatt-hours (Kwh):

A kilowatt-hour is referred to as a measure of electrical energy that is equal to one kilowatt, or 1,000 watts, of power over a 1 hour period. Kwh are said to be as a measure of electrical work, which performed over a period of time and are typically considered as a way of determining energy usage by electric companies.

Joules (J):

The joule is said to be as the energy that is equal to the force on an object of 1 N (newton) at a distance of 1 meter (m). One joule is equal to the heat energy that dissipated by the current of 1 ampere through 1 ohm of resistance for 1 second.

Also, 1 joule is equal to the energy that required moving an electric charge of 1 coulomb through potential difference of 1 volt. In addition, 1 J (joule) also is equal to the 1 watt-second.
