E.2.5 Notes Electrical voltage<br />

Electrical voltage is a physical unit of measurement that specifies how much work or energy is<br />

necessary to move an object with a specific electric charge along an electric field. Voltage is thus<br />

the specific energy of the charge. It is a field variable that can fluctuate by many orders of magnitude.<br />

The following statements can be made about electrical voltage :<br />

- Electrical voltage is the pressure or force on free electrons.<br />

- Electrical voltage is the originator of electric current.<br />

- Electrical voltage is generated by the attempts of electrical charges to balance.<br />

The symbol for voltage is U,<br />

which stems from the Latin „urgere“ (to push, to compel)<br />

Units of measurement: MV (megavolt), kV (kilovolt), V (volt), mV (millivolt), µV (microvolt)<br />

The Volt (V) is the basic SI unit (SI = International System of Units).<br />

The volt is named after Alessandro Volta.
