Even in the event of large differences in the ground potential, ground loops are effec‐
tively prevented. As a result, equalizing currents can no longer flow via the cable shields
and metal housing.
NOTICE
The voltage supply for the device and the connected peripheral devices must also guar‐
antee the required level of insulation.
Under certain circumstances, a tangible potential can develop between the insulated
metal housings and the local ground potential.
