It depends on the electrical specification of the oven.
If the oven has heating elements that say total to 3 kW then the consumption will be 3 kW.hrs per hour if all the heating elements are being used.
If the oven is being used for two hours the consumption will be 6 kW.hrs.
or
If the oven is being used for 30 minutes the consumption will be 1.5 kW.hrs.

An electric oven uses 2000 watts in an hour. This costs you a few cents depending upon where you live. You'd have to check your power bill to find exactly what you pay. This means that in a month most people pay a little over 3 dollars to use their ovens.
a standard electrical oven(the ones we have at home) and not ones in restaurant use in average of 200 kw.h of energy
A typical electric range oven element uses around 240 volts. It is designed to provide the necessary heat for cooking and baking in the oven.
No, the utility company base their billing on the amount of watts used over a specific time.
To calculate the amperage of an appliance use the following equation, I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. In North America the home voltage for larger appliances is 240 volts. Somewhere in the oven there will be a name plate. on it will give you the wattage of the device. Divide the voltage of 240 volts into this wattage value and you will end up with the amperage that the oven requires to operate.
It depends on the power rating of the electrical oven. Small electrical ovens typically require 220-240 volts for efficient operation. Plugging it into a 110 or 120 outlet could cause the oven to not function properly or even damage it. It is best to check the voltage requirements on the oven's manual or specifications.
When the manufacturers refer to a 1000 watt oven they usually mean heat into food. The efficiency of ovens vary but it is quite common that a 1000 watt would consume 2000 watts from the mains. Watts = Amps X Volts so at 120V this would be 16.67 amps. But to be more accurate you need to find the actual input power of the oven.
