(Similar to water flowing through a hose measured in GPM). Voltage (measured in Volts) is the pressure that pushes the electrons or current through the wire. (Similar to the pressure of a water pump as measured in PSI). Power is the product of Voltage and Current and is measured in either Volt-Amps (VA) or in Watts. (VA and Watts are approximately equal for loads other than motor loads).
