The heat range of a spark plug is a measure of the spark plug's ability to remove heat from the combustion chamber.

Vehicles use a higher heat range for spark plugs while lawnmowers and other small engines use spark plugs with a lower heat range.

The heat range also has nothing to do with the actual voltage that is transferred through the spark plug.
