Apple does not use that terminology. To erase your Mac read Erase a volume using Disk Utility on Mac - Apple Support. You will be following the first bulleted item in Step 2.


To subsequently install macOS, read How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support.


... but perhaps you should explain exactly what you want to do, and why.
