A measure of the electrical potential provided by an electric utility (often compared with water pressure in a water system) is termed:
A)voltage.
B)frequency.
C)amperes.
D)none of the above.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Voltage is the correct term for the measure of electrical potential provided by an electric utility. It is often compared to water pressure in a water system, as both represent the force that drives the flow of a substance (electricity or water) through a circuit or system. Frequency refers to the number of cycles per second in an alternating current, while amperes refer to the measure of electrical current flowing through a circuit.
