I take it this system is mounted in some sort of vehicle you have of course made certain it is not a spike or other such electrical interference getting into the cable some how or somewhere else in the system .

Nope. Our systems are very sound electrically. They run 220 volts via a non-switching (a.k.a. on-line) ups, typically powered by a little known device from Electrolux called a TravelPower that runs off the engine. We usually set up 5000 watts of power. Vehicle power is one thing we also have had lots of experience with. We also have sensitive gyroscopes (SAAB fighter aircraft quality), accelerometers, inclinometers, lasers and whatnot. All work fine. And, for the faint of heart, high powered industrial strobes sucking thousands of watts. All working happily.
