Can I use a 1000W bulb with a 600w ballast?
Using it to dim down a bulb, for example to run a 1000w watt bulb at 600w, is not ideal. The better use is to dim the ballast down to 600w and then use it to run an actual 600w bulb. That is the big advantage of a dimmable ballast: it allows you to power bulbs of multiple wattages.
Is kW and kWh the same?
When you see kWh on your monthly energy bill, it’s a measurement of your electric appliances’ wattage and the amount of time you use them. The difference between kWh and kW, and what you see on your bill, is that kW reflects the rate of electricity you use, and kWh indicates the amount of electricity you use.
Is kWh same as kW per hour?
kWh, or kW-hr, or W-hr means power times time, which is energy. kW per hour is kW/hour and it is not a measurement. Watts is power, measured instantaneously, like speed. Watt-Hr are a measure of energy (total power consumed over a given time), like distance traveled over a given time.
