amber represent the number of electrons that flow in the circuit while volt represent the energy that the electrons carry

Volts and Amps (amperes) are engineering measurements used to define characteristics of an electricity supply. These measurements of a supply allow us to calculate the power a supply can deliver. The power is the key item of interest as this tells us how quickly we can charge an EV’s battery pack up.

 

The difference between voltage and current (amps) can be understood if we look at them like water in a pipe (often referred to as the water flow analogy).

 

Voltage is like the pressure of the water, while amps (the current) is the volume of water that flows past a fixed point in a fixed amount of time. The flow rate is determined by the width of the pipe and the pressure.

Ampere is SI unit of electric current while volt is the SI unit of voltage
