For Europe only.....
One my  clients had a similar problem a few years ago.
It was solved by the notified body prescribing
the product to be connected to a dedicated
power group inside the building.
I suggest that you contact your local NB and suggest
a similar solution. After all, not the standard is
mandatory, but the essential requirements of the
EMC-directive. If any technical solution may solve
the interference, connecting to a separate power group
can be a suitable solution also.
The point is: no one gets hindered by your equipment.
