Voltage         
·noun Electric potential or potential difference, expressed in volts.
Voltage         
Potential difference or electro-motive force expressed in volts; as a voltage of 100 volts. Thus voltage may express the electro-motive force absorbed in a conductor, while electro-motive force is a term generally applied where it is produced, evolved or present in the object. The term voltage of a lamp expresses simply the volts required, but does not suggest the possession of electromotive force.
voltage         
¦ noun an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts.

Wikipedia

Voltage

Voltage, also known as electric pressure, electric tension, or (electric) potential difference, is the difference in electric potential between two points. In a static electric field, it corresponds to the work needed per unit of charge to move a test charge between the two points. In the International System of Units, the derived unit for voltage is named volt.: 166 

The voltage between points can be caused by the build-up of electric charge (e.g., a capacitor), and from an electromotive force (e.g., electromagnetic induction in generator, inductors, and transformers). On a macroscopic scale, a potential difference can be caused by electrochemical processes (e.g., cells and batteries), the pressure-induced piezoelectric effect, and the thermoelectric effect.

A voltmeter can be used to measure the voltage between two points in a system. Often a common reference potential such as the ground of the system is used as one of the points. A voltage can represent either a source of energy or the loss, dissipation, or storage of energy.

Examples of use of voltage
1. The station converts high voltage power from area generating stations to low voltage power used by businesses and residents.
2. Ducab, which produces medium and low voltage cables, began commercial production of the high voltage cables this year.
3. A substation converts high voltage into low, and vice versa. «
4. MUMBAI: RPG Cables has bagged order valued at $25 million for supply of medium voltage and low voltage cables of various sizes to Kabul Distribution Enhancement Project, Afghanistan.
5. Ayda was hurled several meters from the high–voltage discharge.
