Voltage is how hard the nozzle sprays, current is the diameter of the hose. High pressure + small hose can be as much flow as a fire hose just gurgling out. Correlates well to how much current a given wire gauge can handle as well. If you hook the garden hose up to a fire hydrant and open it up, the garden hose might explode since it can't handle all the water. A pressure washer might use a thin hose, but the water sprays so hard that it can cut your skin. Idk, that's how I learned it growing up before I learned about stranded vs solid core wire, skin effect, resistance, etc.
