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.
