  4. Galvanic isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_isolation

    Galvanic isolation is used where two or more electric circuits must communicate, but their grounds may be at different potentials. It is an effective method of breaking ground loops by preventing unwanted current from flowing between two units sharing a ground conductor. Galvanic isolation is also used for safety, preventing accidental electric ...
