Question

The electric meter in a house records :

• A. charge
• B. current
• C. energy
• D. power

Answer 1

The correct option is C energy

Answer is C.
When the electricity comes into the house, it first of all goes through a meter to measure how many units, that is, kWh, of electrical energy is used. After the meter, the electricity goes through the main switch, which can be used to cut off the electricity supply altogether if, for instance, repairs and changes have to be made to the wiring.
Hence, a kWh meter is used to measure how much of electrical energy is consumed by all the electrical appliances in the house based on which money is paid to the electricity board.
