Ultraviolet light is not visible. Many ultraviolet lamps also emit some visible light along with the ultraviolet, typically visible violet. Also, ultraviolet light is an ionizing radiation, and will cause some flourescent materials to emit various visible wavelengths of light.

Additional answer
Your questions asks how do you get UV radiation. You can get it from the Sun or from special UV emitters made for the purpose.
Exciplex lasers also emit ultraviolet radiation.

What are ultraviolet waves?
Light waves that are of slightly higher frequency than you can see.
Can you see ultraviolet waves?
No you cannot. An example of those waves would be those released by the sun and you cannot see those.
What damage can ultraviolet waves do to homans?
There are no such things as "ultraviolet waves" or "homans".
How do you use ultraviolet waves in a sentence?
You may experience sunburned skin if you allow your skin to be exposed to the ultraviolet waves that penetrate the clouds on a cloudy day. Ultraviolet waves are at the opposite end of the visible light spectrum from infrared waves. Ultraviolet (UV) waves are longer than X-rays.
Why can't we see infrared waves?
Our eyes are adapted to a certain range of wavelengths; infrared and ultraviolet are those waves that are just outside this range.
What are ultraviolet waves?
Light waves that are of slightly higher frequency than you can see.
What birds can see ultraviolet waves?
crows and mocking birds
Can you see ultraviolet waves?
No you cannot. An example of those waves would be those released by the sun and you cannot see those.
How are ultraviolet waves different from light waves?
Ultraviolet waves are smaller than light waves.
What kind of waves can a honey bee see but a human cannot?
Ultraviolet.
Are ultraviolet waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
Ultraviolet waves are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which all travel as transverse waves.
What damage can ultraviolet waves do to homans?
There are no such things as "ultraviolet waves" or "homans".
Can you feel ultra violet?
You cannot see or feel ultraviolet radiation waves.
How do you use ultraviolet waves in a sentence?
You may experience sunburned skin if you allow your skin to be exposed to the ultraviolet waves that penetrate the clouds on a cloudy day. Ultraviolet waves are at the opposite end of the visible light spectrum from infrared waves. Ultraviolet (UV) waves are longer than X-rays.
How are ultraviolet waves different from violet waves?
Ultraviolet (UV) light has a higher frequency (and a shorter wavelength and shorter period) than violet light. It is more energetic, too. We can't see UV light as our eyes only see up through violet. The shorter wavelengths of the UV light are something we cannot detect with our eyes. We can see (in order of increasing frequency) red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet light. The UV light is outside the range of our vision.
Higher frequencies ultraviolet waves or infrared waves?
Ultraviolet is higher frequency, then visible light, then infrared.
What is next to ultraviolet in the light spectrum?
Starting at ultraviolet, longer waves are waves of visible violet light, and shorter waves are X-rays.
