If RF noise is a problem then it should be dealt with at the source, because RF radiates in all directions not just straight ahead. What is the source and spectral content of the RF noise that you are attempting to suppress?
We're dealing with 60Hz power lines, the impedance of short segments at those frequencies is nil. There isn't much difference in impedance between a power cord and ROMEX at 60Hz unless your power cord is very high end boutique power cord and your ROMEX is extremely long. If your power cord is carrying or radiating RF then so is the ROMEX in the wall.
