An electrosurgical system is provided for use in electrosurgical procedures. The system includes a generator configured to provide electrosurgical energy to an instrument and a dual directional coupler coupled between the generator and the instrument and configured to sample the electrosurgical energy. The system also includes a sensor module configured to detect one or more properties of the sampled electrosurgical energy, a controller configured to receive the detected one or more properties and configured to control the output of the generator based on the detected one or more properties and an isolation device coupled between the sensor module and the controller.
