How do I diagnose/isolate an electrical problem in an ethernet network?

I have an IT client that seems cursed. Network devices end up failing. We have replaced several switches and firewalls that have individual ports failing. I suspect there is some problem with grounding or leakage/noise from the main electrical system. What procedure should we follow to diagnose/isolate the cause of the problem?

I can go buy some network testing gear, but it is not clear to me what would be the most efficient allocation of time and money.
