A ground fault immune power and data delivery system for downhole sensors is connected to a downhole motor via a three-phase power cable. An AC power supply and sensor data module are electrically connected to one of two conductors (phases) at a time selected from the three conductors (phases) to provide power and data signals to the downhole sensors. If a ground fault is detected on one of the two connected phases, an isolation module isolates the grounded phase and switches to the ungrounded connected phase to continue transmitting power and data signals. A frequency of AC power supply, data communication frequencies and a switching frequency of a drive controlling the downhole motor are orthogonal to each other in order to mitigate interference. Surface-to-downhole communication can occur by adjusting voltage, frequency and/or phase of AC power supply controlled by a processor.
