Line Noise in a Network

Are there any tools, that can be used to check for line noise in a LAN. At my work, we have a contract with a company, and they are having problems with their lines, they have blamed us for our 3-D software we put in, but we think it is the lines themselves, they run along in unshielded cable next to huge DC motors and VFDs. Since we added this new software, the traffice has increased, and with this increase the EM effect of the motors has increased, and resulted in data loss. We need to prove this, so that is why I'm asking, any network people know of anything that can check for this?
 
I don't understand. They are saying SOFTWARE is causing LINE NOISE?

Hope that contract has a loophole. I would see if Black Box or another major player can come in for a quick line test. Perhaps with talk about moving the contract will get you a discount.
 
sorry if I missphrased it, they aren't saying that the software is causing line noise, that it is causing the crashes, but we think it is due to noise, causing increased traffic b/c of packet loss. We were just wondering if there was some way to show that the VFDs and DC motors are causing alot of line noise.
