Voltage Converter
Voltage is the electric potential difference that drives current through a circuit. The SI unit is the volt. Sensors and thermocouples output millivolts and microvolts, household outlets use volts, and transmission lines carry hundreds of kilovolts. CGS abvolts and statvolts still appear in older physics texts.
