Voltage in the context of electric circuits is a quantity that can be associated with any (ordered) pair of points. It is defined as the amount of work done on a charge by the electric field in the circuit while it is moved from the first point to the second. Even for two points in a at open circuits are difficult for many students in electrical engineering or physics courses. Often, this difficulty occurs first when voltages across open switches are considered.
