The phrase "alternate voltage" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to electrical engineering or physics, specifically when discussing types of electrical voltage that alternate in polarity over time.
Example: "The circuit requires an alternate voltage supply to function properly."
Alternatives: "AC voltage" or "alternating current voltage".
The maximum average voltage of the RIDPS is 25 kV, to which can be superimposed a sinusoidal or trapezoidal alternate voltage at 50 Hz, 5 kV maximum.
The alternate voltage pulses noted above were delivered every 15 seconds to the recorded neurons to monitor hypoosmotic medium (hypo) induced membrane currents (inset in Fig. 1A).
When the neurons were held at −40 mV, a pair of alternate voltage pulses at ±40 mV induced only less than 250 pA residual whole-cell currents (Fig. 1A, B) and the currents were reversed at −37.5±0.7 mV (n = 11, Fig 1B-a, and C).
Ordinary 60-cycle (60-hertz) alternating voltage and even alternations at radio-wave frequencies switch direction far too slowly to produce this behaviour in clusters; microwave frequencies are required.
Units of measurement, steady (DC) and alternating (AC) voltages, and sources of steady voltage such as batteries (cells) and dynamos are elaborated followed by a discussion of sources of alternating voltage such as alternators and electronic circuits.
The sinusoidal electric field was obtained by applying simultaneously continuous-alternating voltages; in this work an alternating voltage of 50 Hz was applied.
We hypothesized that the alternating voltage clamp-current clamp (VC/CC) technique might provide an alternative to traditional voltage clamp (VC) technique for the determination of INa properties under physiological conditions.
A specially designed series-commutator motor may be operated from a single-phase alternating voltage supply.
The alternating voltage is said to be rectified, or converted to direct current (DC).
If an alternating voltage is applied to the plate, current flows only during the time when the plate is positive.
Transformers are then used to convert the alternating voltage suitable for the generators to a higher voltage suitable for long-distance transmission.
