Effectively, you are applying Criterion A instead of B, and indeed 
that's usually very difficult to do. That's why Criterion B exists.

But there may be no other solution if you buy-in the power supply, 
unless you can co-operate with the supplier to agree a less stringent 
requirement that does not result in your own electronics being 
compromised.
