These terms apply to the coils inside a wattmeter. 'Pressure coil' is an archaic term for 'voltage coil', which is connected in parallel with the supply, while the 'current coil' is connected in series with the load.
difference bwtween current coil & potential coil
The voltage coil refers to the voltage across the coil while the current coil refers to the current passing the given coil.
The current coil is the amount of current passing through a given coil. The voltage coil is the potential difference developed across the coil.
A coil has both resistance and inductance. When you apply a d.c. voltage, the opposition to current is the resistance of the coil. When you apply an a.c. voltage, the opposition to current is impedance -the vector-sum of the coil's resistance and its inductive reactance. Inductive reactance is proportional to the inductance of the coil and the frequency of the supply.
These are two different rating coils. I will not take 24V and 240V ac coils in this explanation, I will take low voltage ac coil and high voltage ac coil in the explanation in general. Low voltage ac coils have low insulation in general compared to the high voltage coils since we need more insulation for the high voltage coils. Low voltage ac coils have less no of turns and less diameter of coil compared to high voltage ac coils. But the thickness of the conductor used for the ac coil depends on the current rating of the coil only it does not depends on the voltage.
A: A coil does store energy and this energy will be released after the current is removed is evident by a reversal of voltage across it before it collapse finally with less and less voltage <<>> Using a volt meter to ground, you would see the supply potential coil voltage on the coil end, if the return wire from the coil was open.
Induction is a property of voltage changes, which does not occur with Direct Current devices. There are exceptions, such as the coil of an automobile, which charges up to a high voltage between ignition discharges, but the voltage supplying the coil does not vary.
In a dc motor the voltage generated in the armature acts against the supply voltage. The current is the voltage difference divided by the armature resistance. If the rotor is turned faster so that the back emf exceeds the supply voltage, the current goes the other way and the motor has become a generator.

The current coil is one through which the current of source can pass. This coil is connected in series. The voltage coil is connected parallel to the applied voltage. In the current coil the quantity of current flowing is proportional to the current flowing in load while in the voltage coil, current flowing is proportional to applied supply voltage. The voltage coil current is independent of current flow in load. For a complete understanding, please refer to a watt meter diagram.
The strength of an electromagnetic is determined completely by the current through its coil, and doesn't depend on the voltage across the coil. The voltage will be (current) x (resistance of the coil).
Current is not induced into a coil. It's voltage that is induced into a coil. If the coil is connected to a load, or even short circuited, then a current will flow as a result of the induced voltage -but it's the voltage, not the resulting current, that's induced!Voltage is induced into a coil because the the changing magnetic field, due to the change in current (0 to Imax or vice versa) applied to that coil. The process is called 'self induction'.

... exhibits a voltage between its ends. If there is a conductor between the ends of the coil, then a current flows in the coil.
There is no such thing as an 'induced current'. Voltages are induced, not currents. If a voltage is self-induced into a coil, then that voltage will oppose any change in current. If a voltage is mutually-induced into a separate coil, no current will flow unless that coil is connected to a load.

The induced voltage acts to oppose any change in current that is causing it. So, if the current is increasing, then the induced voltage will act in the opposite direction to the supply voltage; if the current is decreasing, then the induced voltage will act in the same direction as the supply voltage.

The strength of the electromagnet depends on the magnitude of the current in the coil around it.The voltage required is only what produces the desired current in the coil. Since the coil is nothing butwire, the resistance is quite low, and a relatively small voltage produces a relatively large current.
