Grid crippling natural EMP’s generally occur as the result of the elecctrostatic discharge, meteor impacts, and coronal mass ejections; manmade EMP’s can come in the form of powerline surges, nuclear and non-nuclear electromagnetic pulses.

A Faraday cage provides a wall of protection from EMP’s and devices stored in them will function after the attack; here is how to make one “on the cheap.”

The likelihood of an EMP devastating our electrical grid and devices is fairly remote – but it is possible and has happened before (although in a much less impactful event).

Making your own Faraday cage is one way of making sure your vital electronic devices are protected.
