THEORY:

The total power consumed by a load during an interval of time is ENERGY.

Where, E=Energy, P= Power, T=Time

If the voltages & currents not constant & have n-values over the time t, then

It can also be expressed as continuous integral of Power i.e.,

The unit of energy is Watt second or joule. But its commercial unit is Kilowatt-hours or KWh which
is defined as the energy consumed by a load of 1000 watts over a period of one hour.
