Interference
Electrical measurements involve detection and measurement of
signals.
These undesired signals are amplified along with original signal and
cause errors in measurement.

Inductive Interference
If there is a closed path in the viscinity of a varying magnetic field
then emf gets induced and circulates current through the closed path
3.Current surges
From the point of view of the signal's sink, these signals will have
opposing directions and will therefore cancel out.
Electromagnetic Interference
Electromagnetic interference (or EMI, also called radio frequency
interference or RFI) is a disturbance that affects an electrical circuit due to
either electromagnetic conduction or electro magneticradiation
emitted from an external source.
Sources
1.Presence of common ground path
2.Due to power transformers of measuring instruments
3.Wrong connections of power supply to load
Ground Loop Interference
A ground/earth loop usually refers to a current, generally unwanted, in
a conductor connecting two points that are supposed to be at the
same potential, often ground, but are actually at different potentials.
They can also create an electric shock hazard, since ostensibly "grounded"
parts of the equipment, which are often accessible to users, are not at
ground potential.
