I can certainly tell you it is a MAJOR issue!

The city of Manassas, Virginia has begun to allow Broadband Internet to 
be passed over the city power system.

We've suffered through issues of pathetically installed cable systems 
with leakage due to UNTRAINED or poorly trained techs. 

BUT, this now means RFI applied to EVERY receptacle in one's household!

How many toroids is one going to need?

I can't imagine purchasing, much less installing headaches to get and 
put in a 15 to 20+KVA line filter to cover the whole house.

The ONLY good news is that my neighborhood has underground service.  The 
WORST news, the ENTIRE neighborhood was built as TOTAL eclectric homes!
