Yes, it is great having you here in the forum!! - Nicole-B, Dec 2, 2011

Is voltage a valid Spanish word. Our dictionary offers "voltaje" as the palabre español. RAE says "La palabra voltage no está registrada en el Diccionario." - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

Welcome to the forum, please remember to use proper capitalization and punctuation on all of your posts. - Yeser007, Dec 4, 2011

Answer 1

I think ' overload'.

I missed the context. You're right. - pesta, Dec 2, 2011

You're right as well, about the voltage. Thanks, I'm not an electrician so don't trust me with wires.. - annierats, Dec 2, 2011

Answer 2

I suggest it is more likely that the simplest answer is the correct answer here:
Sobre voltage = About voltage
Example ----> Tengo una pregunta sobre voltage. (I have a question about voltage.)

I'm not meaning to correct, but sobre also means "over" - MeLlamoWaverly, Dec 2, 2011

Ya got my vote here, it could possibly be that simple. - albert-fabrik-, Dec 2, 2011

Remember that our own dictionary gives "sobrecarga" as the translation for overload. Not "sobre" on its own. - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

Where is Paco Finkler when we need him?? Paco! Come back Paco! - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

When I searched the internet I am satisfied that "electrical overload" in Spanish is "sobrecarga eléctrico". - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

When I searched the internet I also found that "sobrecarga voltaje" = "Voltage overload". - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

I like it. This just underscores the problem that questions are asked with too little context. - pesta, Dec 2, 2011

Answer 3

I didn't understand the context at first.

sobre voltaje = "overload" o "power surge"

Yes, I think this is the winner. :) - Nicole-B, Dec 2, 2011

very correct. Stand back! - annierats, Dec 2, 2011

Answer 4

Se dice, "voltage"

Hm. I think you meant: "se dice 'voltaje'.", no? - Gekkosan, Dec 2, 2011

Answer 5

Ok hang on a moment Sobre carga is overcharged in this case, not overloaded This can be as simple as a power surge, or it can mean a higher voltage on the line than the equipment connected can tolerate. We find here in Mexico that a normal 110 volt house current line can be " sobre carga" or as much as 125 volts this is over voltage where filters and suppressors must be installed. we also see power dips and surges in industrial parks where voltage drops when large machinery is brought on line.

Sobre carga from the context I see does not mean that you have overtaxed the circuit.

Sobre peso would be that condition.

At the base of the question it would appear that overvoltage or power surge would be the answer but more context would help

Answer 6

I don't know what context the original poster is talking about, but overvoltage is an engineering term I've used for almost 40 years. I have no idea how that would translate.

Here's another link I found that explains sobrevoltage

When I searched the internet I am satisfied that "electrical overload" in Spanish is "sobrecarga eléctrico". In your experience does anyone speak of a "voltage overload"? - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

Yes, there are situations that would cause a voltage overload. - Jack-OBrien, Dec 2, 2011

Jack based on your reply, I searched the internet and found that "sobrecarga voltaje" = "Voltage overload." - Moe, Dec 2, 2011

That makes sense Moe. I guess 'overvoltage' is only an English term then. - Jack-OBrien, Dec 2, 2011

Answer 7

Se dice "over charge" o "overload" . Over = sobre and voltage= voltaje Pero cuando puso juntos, es decho "overload"

In Spanish, "overload = sobrecarga = overcharge" according to our own dictionary.. - Moe, Dec 2, 2011
