Reduce signal noise detected by accelerometer due to interference from a motor (caused by reverse neutral current)
I separated the motor from the steel table it was mounted to with some wood, and I also grounded the motor to a different ground from the DAQ's ground. Some interference still existed after this step, but the accelerometer's data was no longer being overwritten by the motor. The accelerometer will be mounted differently to the test fixture. The threads of the accelerometer being screwed in to the test fixture demonstrated a clear increase in noise. The more contact the threads had with the fixture, the more noise that was presented.
