Copper foil (rather than aluminium) is commonly used as a workaround to reduce EMI:
When having no idea at all about what to suppress and how, I would suggest not to play with any foil at all since odds are great that you will end up by worsening things in terms of noise.
Dealing with Power cables shielding as per this thread title I seriously doubt of any benefit with the 30 feet length foil since if the AC/DC source is noisy the foil will not prevent it to enter to the plugged devices.
