I did some searching, but I wasn't able to find anything conclusive on the subject. When looking for a IEC socket with a built in fuse for my latest project, I came across some fairly inexpensive power line filters (link). Would these be helpful in cleaning up the AC signal a bit, or is it not worth it? What would be the pros and cons of using a filter such as this? Obviously there are going to be some losses associated with it, but are they significant enough to justify not using it?
Just hoping for a few cents worth of knowledge from my fellow forum members 😎

analog_sa: forgive my ignorance, but how so?
peranders: what would you be refering to...the IEC inlets? or something a little bit more large and in charge? 😀

Just so I wrap my mind around this...the link I posted is virtually the same thing, just not built into the socket, correct? Or is it a totally different beast alltogether?

where did you pull that from ? the Tyco filters are used in high end (very high end) medical equipment like ultrasound --

Yea I'm confused too. I have lots of them but not use them. I don't know, I have a bad feeling with them. But I have been always give them chances with any new setup.

Medical equipment! Am I missing something here? Many equipments use them of course, and I believe 100% that they are properly functioning there.
