1. Is amended to recite: An apparatus for suppressing transmission of signals over a conductor coupled between a power source and a signal source powered thereby, the apparatus comprising:
a first input for receiving power from the power source via one or more power conductors;
a second input for connecting to a ground conductor;
an output for providing the received power to the signal source and coupling the signal source with the ground conductor; and
a circuit coupled with the input and the output, the circuit comprising:
for each of the one or more power and ground conductors, an inductor forming an electrical path from the first or second input through the inductor to the output; and
wherein the signals from the signal source impart one or more characteristics on one or more of the one or more power conductors, and further wherein one or more of the one or more inductors further includes a secondary winding operative to sense the one or more characteristics in the conductor included in the electrical path therewith, each of the secondary windings being coupled with a processor operative to convert the sensed one or more characteristics to digital data representative thereof and process the digital data to derive at least one result therefrom.
