EMI is an issue with ARC

The cable did the trick from source to display but unfortunately ARC is having issues for me. I ran this wire through the attic, not through power cords, but oddly I get audio interference when the oven, stove, or fridge is turned on. I found after testing with the TV and receiver plugged into UPS battery power only and removing all equipment except for the TV, receiver and this HDMI that the interference persisted. Eventually I replaced the temporary copper HDMI to test only ARC and the crashes are gone. I would really like to succeed with this HDMI optical cable as it is cheaper than others on the market but I think they are too cheap in materials. This is very bad.
