Noise Suppression at Source
If possible, eliminate mechanical contact relays and replace with solid-state relays.
Noise-generating devices such as Ignition transformers, arc welders, motor drives, relays
and solenoids should be mounted in a separate enclosure. If this is not possible, separate
them from the instrumentation, by the largest distance possible.
Many manufacturers of relays, contactors etc supply 'surge suppressors' to reduce noise at
its source. For those devices that do not have surge suppressors supplied, Resistance-
Capacitance (RC) networks and/or Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV) may be added.
Inductive coils:-
MOVs are recommended for transient suppression in inductive coils.
Connect as close as possible, in parallel to the coil. Additional protection may be provided by
adding an RC network across the MOV.

Contacts:-
Arcing may occur across contacts when they open and close. This results in
electrical noise as well as damage to the contacts. Connecting a properly sized RC network
can eliminate this arc.
For circuits up to 3 amps, a combination of a 47 ohm resistor and 0.1 microfarad capacitor
(1000 volts) is recommended. For circuits from 3 to 5 amps, connect two of these in parallel.
