Thanks to both of you. I have used stimulating currents, but
I was not sure, because it is so generalized in my context.
Again thanks for the help.

1) excitation currents


Explanation:
since you didn't give any indication of context, it's hard to say what it should be. If the subject is electrical motors, the term is 'excitaion currents'. For physiological applications (as per some of the refs), stimulation currents would be correct.

threshold?


Explanation:
could Reizstrom be threshold current,
the minimum stimulus sufficient to elicit a response?
(lack of context makes this a wild guess)
