Abstract: The present disclosure provides a current monitoring circuit for monitoring current in a geophysical survey system. The circuit may be utilized in dipole-dipole systems including one or more electrode stations or in loop systems. The circuit includes a transmitter configured to generate an output current. One or more current monitors are positioned to detect current at or near the electrode stations or at positions along the one or more loops. Measured current data is transmitted back to the transmitter, which may be shut down if necessary. Methods for monitoring current in a geophysical survey system are also provided.
