How noisy is my line? Audio Prism Noise Sniffer
A friend and audio journalist had this Prism device, and he plugged it into various outlets when I visited him. It gave a clear sense of which outlets were noisy and how effectively his conditioners were helping with noise.
He said these were not made any longer. Does anyone know of another tool like this?
It seems like it could save someone with clean power (or a quiet outlet) a lot of money from conditioners/regenerators which would not necessarily help.

Google “powerline noise analyzer” or “powerline noise sniffer.” The typical meter has a numerical readout in some units, such as parts per thousand, and they also have a mini speaker that plays a demodulated form of the noise so you can identify the source as radio interference or a motor or electric arcing, etc. There are at least a dozen models available. |
@larryi Thanks. It's interesting to me that these tools are nearly never mentioned when discussions of conditioners, etc. are flying around. |
