High voltage can be dangerous.
A nagyfeszültség veszélyes lehet.
The light will not work if the voltage is too low.
We measured the voltage with a meter.
Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes confuse 'voltage' with 'current'. Voltage is the force that pushes electricity, while current is the movement of electric charge.
