Slightly off topic but of historical note on welding emissions. Oddly enough, (at least this is what a prominent retired VDE Engineer told me) the whole EMI thing started in Germany in the late 40's/early 50's because of an automobile manufacturing plant and the emissions generated by the welding process. Apparently the welding process emissions interfered with "listening" efforts of western intelligence as the plant was near the east/west border of cold-war Europe. This resulted in the legal implementation of VDE class A limits.
