    If of any two points the absolute potentials are determined, the difference between such two expresses the potential difference. Numerically it expresses the quantity of work which must be done to remove a unit of electricity from one to the other against electric repulsion, or the energy which would be accumulated in moving it the other way. A positively charged particle is driven towards the point of lower potential. A negatively charged body is driven in the reverse direction.
