In a previous lesson, we examined power.
Power is the rate of transformation of energy. We now apply this concept to electricity.
In an electric circuit we have energy transformations - electrical to light, electrical to heat, electrical to kinetic - just to name a few.
This video examines power in context of electrical circuits, reviews the mathematical principles and discusses power in terms of series and parallel circuits

Our homes are connect in parallel circuits.
So how does the electricity supply company determine how much power we use?
In essence the determine the amount of energy by determining the amount of current drawn at any one time by our home
This video examines how this works and why the unit for our usage is the kilowatt hour
