GND disconnection protection

GND disconnection is the disconnection of the module from the reference line. When this condition occurs, the

output channel is turned off regardless of the input status.

For an inductive load, if the GND is disconnected while the output channel is active, the current flows through the

power, which is activated by an active clamp as if the input had been deactivated.
