Polier PANDA15X2 dirty electricity and Linky PLC filter

The PANDA15X2 Polier filter filters out parasitic frequencies from the electricity network, known as "dirty electricity", in the 10 kHz to 1 MHz frequency band (compact flux lamps, computer transformers, neon lights, etc.) as well as the Linky PLC circulating on your electricity network.

It contains a high-performance 15 µF (microfarad) capacitor protected by a fuse that reduces electrical disturbance on your network. Its internal electromagnetic shielding also reduces the electric field around the filter (for this shielding to work, the Panda filter must be plugged into an earthed socket).

It limits the biological effects generated by the parasitic frequencies known as "dirty electricity" carried by the electrical cables in your electrical installation.

The other advantage of this filter is its socket integrated into the housingThis allows you to use the plug to which the filter is connected (whereas with other filters, the plug to which the filter is connected is dedicated solely to this purpose and cannot be used to connect any other appliance).

What is "dirty electricity"?

Dirty electricity" refers to the superimposition of high-frequency interference frequencies on the low-frequency 50 Hz electrical network. They mainly come from :

• compact fluorescent light bulbs, neon lights
• photovoltaic panel inverters
• certain dimmers
• computers and computer transformers
• photocopiers
• PLC (Power Line Communication), including that of Linky
• variable speed electric motors
• electrical transformers

The effects on health can be as follows: heart palpitations, insomnia, migraines and headaches, tinnitus, dizziness, concentration problems, irritability, anxiety, nausea, tingling or burning sensations, joint and muscle pain, etc. 

Electro-hypersensitive people often combine several of these symptoms.

How the Panda POLIER filter works

The Panda POLIER filter reduces the dirty electricity present on your network while attenuating high-frequency noise near your cables and electrical appliances. Reducing conducted interference means preventing these parasitic frequencies from being radiated all around you, in all the cables in your home.  

The Panda filter is plugged into a 16 A socket, as close as possible to the source(s) of dirty electricity (to prevent it spreading throughout the network), and reduces the level of dirty electricity throughout the circuit to which it is connected. 
For dirty electricity coming from outside (photovoltaic panels or transformers), the Panda filter should be placed as close as possible to the electrical panel.

Depending on the size of your home, we recommend the installation of 2 to 5 filters :

• one near the main electrical panel to protect you from the Linky PLC and/or external electrical transformers, 
• one near your computer
• one in the kitchen
• one close to any disruptive equipment

We recommend that you connect these filters to earthed sockets to take advantage of the built-in shielding.

Installing several filters increases their efficiency and lifespan.

Agara Council 

The POLIER Panda filter protects against dirty electricity, but has no impact on the 50 Hz electric fields of your electrical installation (cables in the walls) and connected electrical appliances.
So to reduce your exposure as much as possible, it's important to protect yourself from these electric fields too, by installing appropriate protection (power strips, shielded cables and extension leads, shielded lighting, automatic field switches, etc.).
