The potential difference between points A and B, that is, the change in potential of a charge q moved from A to B, is equal to the change in potential energy divided by the charge. Potential difference is commonly called voltage, represented by the symbol ΔV.

Electric field-vector diagrams and field-line diagrams enable us to visualize the field.
