Solution

The correct option is D kilowatt-hour meter
The kilowatt hour (symbolized kW⋅h as per SI) is a composite unit of energy equivalent to one kilowatt (1 kW) of power sustained for one hour. One watt is equal to 1 J/s. One kilowatt hour is 3.6 MJoules, which is the amount of energy converted if work is done at an average rate of one thousand watts for one hour.
