Differences Between Watt and Volt
Cloud Banner
Watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere flows across. The potential difference is volt.
Cloud Banner
The symbol of watt is W, whereas Volt's symbol is V.

When the internal power of a watt rises, the volt's internal electric potential increases, keeping the electric current constant.

When the watt's internal power reduces, the volt's internal electric potential reduces, keeping the electric current constant.
