Galvanic isolation is used where two electric circuits must communicate, but their grounds may be at different potentials. It is an effective method of breaking ground loops between the two circuits. Galvanic isolation is also used for safety, preventing accidental current from reaching ground through a person's body.

Galvanic Isolation Adapters provide a basic isolation that withstands high voltages.

To prevent injury to personnel when dealing with potentially hazardous voltages it is mandatory to have a second protection measure in place, in case the first insulation barrier fails. This is termed double or, reinforced isolation. How should a double isolation be implemented depends on the use-case or application setup.
