Unit conversions

Electric companies use an energy unit called a kilowatt-hour (KWHR) to measure your electric usage and generate your electric bill. If your house uses an average of 46 KWHR, how much should you expect your average monthly electric bill to be?

You would need a cost rate to estimate the answer to this question. For example my electricity provider charges between $0.04 per kWh and $0.12 per kWh depending on the time of year. They will typically charge a "service fee" as well. I can say that that 46 kWh is very low. Most homes use in the hundreds or even thousands of kWh per month.

Hello Aly

Here what you need to understand is KW hr Or KWH is the unit of electric energry consumed and is also known as 1 unit of energy consumed

You are charged as per units ( KWH ) consumed during a given billing cycle


Here You need to know charges per unit

If Charges per Unit are x Dollars

Then your bill for given cycle will be 46x Dollar
