Picking up where we left off in Part 1, we need to explore some methods to mitigate problems caused by unpredictable ground currents.

Having problems with your process controls and electrical instrumentation? The source may be a grounding disturbance known as a ground loop. According to the ANSI/ IEEE Standard Dictionary of ...

As shown in Figure 1, this issue had been previously addressed during pre-internet times in EDN of January 18, 1990 but a further detailed look at the idea is warranted thirty-four years later. Figure ...

Continuous changes in legislation with regards to designing electronic systems in industrial applications call for the implementation of galvanic isolation into almost any electronic circuit design.

Power quality experts cringe when they hear the words “isolated ground” because the consequences of a poorly designed or applied isolated ground system can be disastrous. Several facilities with ...

In electronic systems, wires and cables provide intentional circuit paths for power or signal currents to move from a source to a load and then return to the source. These current paths have the ...
