: Thanks in advance for your input.

Get an RFI filter from an old computer/printer/fax/laser copier power 
supply.  It will have the very common IEC-6 plug on the mains side and 
either solder tabs, screw on lugs or spade connectors on the 
device-under-test side. Generally free and depending on the size of the 
supply, typically can handle from 6-15A for consumer products.  I have a box 
of them in the shop collected over two decades.

Check ebay if you need something adequate, inexpensive and can handle many, 
many tens of Amps.
