A grounding cable warning device includes a housing affixable to a grounding cable. An electrical current transformer is disposed within the housing. An energy storage component is disposed within the housing. A first sensor is disposed within the housing and configured to detect an electrical current in the grounding cable. A second sensor is disposed within the housing and configured to detect a voltage of the grounding cable. One or more electronic indication components are arranged with the housing and configured to alert a user of an unsafe condition. A microcontroller is disposed within the housing and receives input from the first sensor and the sensor and actuates the one or more electronic indication components, in response to receipt of the input, to alert the user of the unsafe condition.
