Unit of energy, equal to a watt/second (newton/meter).
A unit of energy. One joule for one second is equal to one watt of power. Joules is (current x time x voltage).
The higher the joule rating, the better the protection. The technical answer: One joule is equal to the work done when a one amp of current is passed through a resistance of one ohm for one second. For example, a 100-watt light bulb uses 100 joules every second.
the derived SI unit of work or energy. 1 joule is equivalent to 1 watt-second.
a measure of work or energy used in the Imperial System. measure of work or energy. A simple definition is that a joule is the work required to lift a mass of about 100 g for one meter under the earth's gravity.
A measurement of electrical energy used to rate low impedance fence controllers. The effective power the controller delivers to the fence, independent of other factors that can drain voltage. The higher the joules, the more intense shock the animal will feel. (1 joule = 1 watt of power for 1 second)
A unit of energy. One joule is equal to the work done when a current of one ampere is passed through a resistance of one ohm for one second. A 100-watt light bulb uses 100 joules every second. In power protection, the higher the joule rating, the better the surge protection.
