Live near a housing development with many tenants. The high line on the road is about 20  feet diagonally from my attic.  Getting a lot of noise even with my house main breaker off.
Appears to be induced into the attic wiring.

Question. Anyone tried some form "twisted pair with green wire"  house wiring to reduce noise ?
If Yes, how did it work ?
Wiring laws vary from state to state.   If anyone has something that worked, then I can ask local electrical law enforcement about it.

Years ago they had a BX cable   . It was twisted wires inside a metallic wrapper.  When I was very young they used to think the metal wrapper got hot and started house fires.
