Testing for Dirty Electrical Power

Hi,

Is there any suggestion on a device that can test for Dirty Electrical Power?

One that I have come across is the, "Greenwave Broadband EMI Dirty Electricity Meter" on amazon.

I wanted to see (if it's really even possible) how my electricity is doing and then using the same device on my power strip (Isotek Evo 3 Sirius) to see if there is any change or if I end up getting any other type power filtration in the future, I would want to see how much better or worse that is making everything, besides just audible differences.

If my thinking is incorrect, please let me know.

I'm just curious to see if a device could tell me.

Thanks

The Greenwave meter starts at 3,000 hz , since we want clean power at 60 hz it's missing a lot of interference .

I have 7 Green wave filters on the circuit that my stereo is plugged into but they only filter higher frequency interference , I also use 3 PS Audio Noise Harvesters on this circuit .  When I had 5 Noise Harvesters and 2 Greenwave filters the NHs would be blinking very rapidly when the heat pump was on but now with less NHs and  more GF they blink every couple of seconds . I placed on NH in the computer outlet and another with the fridge along with a GF .  I don't use any other filters other than everything in my house is plugged into a Tripp-Lite Ultra isobar .
