KILOWATTS
A watt is a small unit of electricity, and 1000 watts is a kilo-
watt and a kilowatt hour indicates the use of 1000 watts for an
hour or its equivalent. For instance the use of one 1000 watt lamp
for an hour is the same as 25 forty watt lamps for the same period
and a one horsepower motor used for an hour will consume 746
watts.
Such a simple thing as boiling a quart of water can be done
in several ways and the current used largely depends on how
quickly you want it done.
On an electric tea kettle it takes 1320 watts and 3 minutes.
On a rangette or hotplate it takes 1320 watts and 7-410 minutes.
On a small range burner it takes 1000 watts'and 12-15 minutes.,
On the large range burner it takes 2000 watts and 6-7 minutes.
It takes 3000-3500 watts to preheat an electric stove oven and
1300-1500 watts per hour to keep it at baking heat.
Other Household Appliances take, per hour, approximately as
follows;
25 watts

water, We can each do much to conserve electric current.
