Never heard the term relating to electricity. Maybe I can learn something. Someone answer this question.
Oh I think you meant electric potential. This science gets a little deep for me. Maybe someone can explain. The only thing I can think of is the gravity.
Duh now I see what you mean as Voltage as pushing the current through any conductor. I know voltage as the push but never consider it pressure. That's a slang term. NOT a technical term.

A common method of teaching students the concept of electricity, comparisons to water are often made.
When compared to water, water pressure is like electrical voltage, it's how much "push" there is.
Water flow is like amperage, a measure of the amount of flow.

Voltage is the pressure used to drive current.
