Internet of Things for locating ground loop in a complex situation

Ground loop is a serious problem in a lab or an industry. It conflicts with low-level signals instrument and sometimes endangers for human being. However, detecting the ground loop within a huge instrument is difficult task and time consuming matter. To solve this problem, a novel technique is applied for detecting ground loop in a complex situation using internet of thing (IoT). This approach consists of an exciter module with IoT device that generates a 100 kHz ground loop current and a detector to determine affected cable by receiving the test current. Multiple detectors used to give a virtual cable id in a complex area to identify fault cable. After detecting ground loop the affected cable id sent to the server for taking an action to prevent the ground loop.
