Abstract
A temperature measurement system includes at least one grounded thermocouple operable to measure a temperature, a processor in communication with the grounded thermocouple and configured to measure the temperature, and a power supply coupled to the grounded thermocouple and the processor. The power supply is configured to receive a voltage input and generate an isolated voltage. The grounded thermocouple is selectively biased with the isolated voltage from the power supply during a temperature measurement.
