Definition of overvoltage:

(n) : the difference between the electric potential of an electrode or cell under the passage of a current and the thermodynamic value of the electrode or cell potential in the absence of electrolysis; overpotential; the hazardous condition that occurs when the voltage in a circuit is raised above that for which it was designed
