Default Re: Faraday cage.

Hi,

A few quick responses:

1. grounding of a Faraday cage is strictly not necessary (I think)
2. isolate your equipment well from the conducting case

Quick solutions (for rapid response without preparation):

- A metal cupboard
- A metal drawer cabinet
- refrigerator ! (make sure the hinges electrically connect the door to the 'casing')

Don't forget to isolate your stuff when you are in a hurry. And also do not forget to include power supplies/converters etc.

Another tip maybe to have a spare watch in your EMP safe casing in order to keep track of time and date afterward !

Cheers
