The term ground loop has more than one meaning:
- Ground loop (electricity), in electrical engineering and electronics, refers to an unwanted electrical current that flows in a conductor connecting two points that are supposed to be at the same potential, for example ground potential, but are actually at different potentials. In an Electrical System, a ground loop usually refers to a current
- Ground loop (aviation), in aviation, refers to the rapid circular rotation of an aircraft in the horizontal plane while on the ground. In Aviation, a ground loop refers to the rapid Rotation of a Fixed-wing aircraft in the Horizontal plane whilst on the ground Ground loops are common with taildraggers, as the center of gravity is behind the main undercarriage.
- A ground loop is sometimes used to mean a Ground-coupled heat exchanger. Earth cooling tubes or earth warming tubes (also known as ground-coupled heat exchangers) utilize the earth's near constant subterranean temperature to warm or cool
