I would typically use the term "electric field" like so: "[...] therefore, it has a high electric field". If I wanted to hyphenate this term with a compound word, how would I do so?

Someone mentioned that "Electric-field-induced voltage" is appropriate, but I believe "Electric field-induced voltage" is (no hyphen in between electric and field added). Which is it?

  • Some would use << electric-field-induced voltage >> whereas some recommend << electric-field–induced voltage >> where the hyphen indicates the stronger bond ('electric field' being a compound, open in standalone usage as you say). – Edwin Ashworth May 12 '23 at 16:32
  • Interesting take with the en-dash! Thanks. – user479832 May 30 '23 at 19:08
