PS: Electrical Engineers may now jump in for corrections.
10 bulbs X 100w = 1000w (or 1kw)
1000w X 24hr = 24000w (24kw)
watts x hours is watt-hours, not watts
24 kwh
24kw X 30 days = 720000w (or 720kw)
72000 wh (72 kwh)
(Actually, 24 kw for 30 days would be about 17 Mwh, and probably melt your wiring).
a Kilowatt hour is 1000 watts.
1000 watt hours
So 720000w / 1000 = 720kwh
(I assume you get it by now)
If your units don't make sense, don't expect anyone to believe your numbers.
I'm not an EE, and I assume neither are you.
