Convert joule to therm (EC)
Please provide values below to convert joule [J] to therm (EC) [thm (EC)], or Convert therm (EC) to joule.
1 J = 9.47816987913e-09 thm (EC). To convert joule to therm (EC), multiply the value by 9.47816987913e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 thm (EC) = 105505600 J). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Joule
The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy, work, and heat, defined as the work done when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter.
History/Origin
The joule was named after James Prescott Joule in 1889 to honor his work in energy and thermodynamics. It was adopted as the SI unit of energy in 1948.
Current Use
The joule is widely used in physics, engineering, and everyday contexts to quantify energy, work, and heat in various applications, including electricity, mechanics, and thermodynamics.
Therm (Ec)
The therm (EC) is a unit of energy used primarily in the measurement of natural gas and heating energy, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm originated in the early 19th century as a practical unit for measuring large quantities of heat energy, especially in the gas industry, and has been standardized in various regions for energy billing and calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm (EC) is used mainly in the natural gas industry and energy sectors to quantify heat energy consumption, although it has largely been supplemented or replaced by SI units like joules and kilowatt-hours in many regions.
