What is the difference between fear and respect?

Some abusive people can obtain respect (twisted respect) by dishing out fear. That's the only connection.
Normally fear of a person or persons is not respect, but simply fear itself (bodily harm.) Respect is earned and it's when someone treats you like a human being with kindness, love and affection along with trust and honor that you respect that person.
==Further Point==
Respect involves regard for moral worth. There are people I may disagree with but look up to as decent and principled and so on. People who are feared for their violence and brutality are morally contemptible - that is, morally low.

Is there any difference between voltage and potential?
Yes, there IS a difference between 'voltage' and
'potential'.
'Voltage' is a synonym for 'potential difference',
not 'potential'.
A potential difference exists between two points which are at
different potentials. For example, if point A has a potential of,
say, +25 V with respect to earth (ground), and point B has a
potential of, say, -6 V with respect to earth, then the voltage
(potential difference) between points A and B is +25 - (-6) = 31
V.
