contents We introduce a new system of surface integral equations for Maxwell's transmission problem in three dimensions. This system has two remarkable features, both of which we prove. First, it is well-posed at all frequencies. Second, the underlying linear operator has a uniformly bounded inverse as the frequency approaches zero, ensuring that there is no low-frequency breakdown. The system is derived from a formulation we introduced in our previous work, which required additional integral constraints to ensure well -posedness across all frequencies. In this study, we eliminate those constraints and demonstrate that our new self adjoint, constraints-free linear system expressed in the desirable form of an identity plus a compact weakly-singular operator is stable for all frequencies. Furthermore, we propose and analyze a fully discrete numerical method for these systems and provide a proof of spectrally accurate convergence for the computational method. We also computationally demonstrate the high-order accuracy of the algorithm using benchmark scatterers with curved surfaces.
