Aus einem Patent:
Data signals may also be combined with the command or programming signals, further simplifying the digital isolation barrier. The line side circuitry of the disclosed embodiment of the invention operates with a "floating" ground reference, and can tolerate high voltage inputs for compatibility with the telephone network and typical surge requirements.
Ich habe den Begriff zwar einige Male ergoogelt, konnte aber aus dem Zusammenhang nicht erkennen, was im Deutschen damit gemeint ist. :-(

potenzialfreie Erdung
This might be what you are looking for.
It is the opposite of 'starre Erdung' where the ground is tied (usually physically by a low-impedance connection) to an outside ground.
In your case, think of a battery. It has + and -. If you connect the circuit ONLY to the battery + and - terminals and NOT to a water pipe or some other outside connection, you could say that your circuit operates with a floating ground. You could then connect the - terminal of the battery to, say, another voltage source and raise the entire circuit to a 'ground' that is offset from REAL 0 potential ground by this other voltage source.
I know, too much information. I will go get coffee now to calm me down.....

English term (edited):
floating ground reference
schwebende Erdung
See ref. for example. It decouples the circuitry from a fixed (ground) potential so it only concerns itself with the voltage *difference* between the incoming leads and not with the absolute voltages.

getrennte Masse für Netz und Signal
Das ist, was der ERNST für "floating ground" sagt und vielleich in den Kontext passen könnte.
