Think of a water pump: the voltage is the pressure pushing the water, the current is the flow rate of the water, and the energy consumed is the total volume of water pumped over a specific duration.

Remember 'VIT' for energy: Energy equals Voltage $\times$ Current $\times$ Time ($E = V \times I \times t$).

Electrical power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred, given by $P = V \times I$. Total electrical energy ($E$) is the product of power and time ($t$), expressed as $E = P \times t = V \times I \times t$. Converting time into standard SI units (seconds) yields energy in Joules, which can then be converted into kilojoules.

In competitive exams, always watch out for unit mismatches—ensure time is converted to seconds and energy is appropriately scaled between Joules and kilojoules.
