desplazamiento de CC (corriente continua)


Explanation:
pero fíjate en el contexto, porque una de las traducciones posibles (aunque poco probable) de DC es línea secundaria. También puede significar compensación o desviación, segón el contexto. Pero yo me inclino por la respuesta que puse arriba.

corrimiento en CC


Explanation:
DC es corriente continua (CC).
El concepto es que se toma como origen de coordenadas un punto distinto al 0,0 al efectuar mediciones (por ejemplo con un osciloscopio)
De alli que existe un corrimiento hacia el nuevo origen o punto de referencia.

Se utiliza la expresión en inglés.


Explanation:
En este caso, la mayoría de los documentos técnicos utilizan el término en inglés. En algunos casos, se traduce por "calibración", "nivelación", "referencia", etc. Al igual que en la anterior pregunta, te recomiendo una búsqueda en Google. Te indico algunas referencias
