The good news is, you can protect your electronic equipment from an EMP event. A popular method of EMP-proofing is to use a Faraday cage, a protective container equipped with a conductive outer layer that is typically made from aluminum.
What material can block an EMP?
It turns out that a very effective EMP protection measure, or shielding, can be made from aluminum foil. Common heavy-duty aluminum foil successfully blocked all nine million watts of RF energy from reaching the radios. The radio needed to be wrapped in three layers, but it worked!
Do Faraday bags block EMP?
A Faraday bag is a type of Faraday cage. It protects electronics from being damaged by radio frequency interference (RFI) or from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) by not allowing radio frequency or electromagnetic pulse waves to pass through the material.
