Is it correctly 0 volt or 0 volts? Reference?

Since the number 0 doesn't need units for anything, why try to use
them? Why not just say "the potential is 0"? On the other hand, if
you like to use units with zero, I personally think that the plural
sounds better with 0 than the singular. But this is English, not
physics.

Never ask someone what computer they use. If they use a Mac, they
will tell you. If not, why embarrass them?
