The electrical potential difference (or voltage difference) between any two
nodes in a circuit is the energy per coulomb needed to move a small +ve
charge from one node to the the other.
We usually pick one of the nodes as a reference and define the voltage at a
node to be the voltage difference between that node and the reference.

The potential difference between A and B is written as VAB and shown as
an arrow pointing towards A. This is the energy per coulomb in going from
B to A and satisfies VAB = VA VB . (Different from vectors)
