The '''Tektronix A6901 Ground Isolation Monitor''' connects between mains power and test equipment
without connecting protective ground, in order to safely allow referencing measurements to a low voltage
instead of ground, or break ground loops.
 
It monitors the floating equipment ground voltage. If the voltage exceeds 40 V peak,
or ground current exceeds a selectable limit of 0.5, 3.5 or 5 mA, the A6901 disconnects
mains power and grounds the test equipment.
