VERY basically, you eliminate all other possible sources of that 10-over noise. If you still have it, you start complaining to the power company. They really are required to fix that sort of thing. After arguing with them for a year or so, tell them you have the perfect way of showing them that their equipment is at fault, but it requires their cooperation. Then tell them you will shoot out their transformers till the noise stops. The last transformer was the culprit. Most of the time it will never get that far. They'll fix things just to get rid of you (and to keep you from complaining to the utilities commission in your state capitol <- the biggy!).

Wringing out all the obvious B.S. and you have the basic idea. IF you don't find that the noise is originating some where else. Sounds 'hokey', but document everything! It really does make a difference.
