Im by no means profficient with the technicalities of EMPs, effects, protection, etc but I'm interested in a Faraday Cage. I'm moving to a new house after Christmas and in the basement is a good size room where the furnace and water heater is. It has a concrete floor and the walls and ceilings have not been dry walled. My original plan was to build a small Faraday cage to keep batteries and such. Then I started thinking I could put the small wire mesh around the entire room then dry wall over it. The cage could be grounded by the sump pump and theoretically protect the entire room.
Thoughts? Am I way off base? I'd like to protect batteries and other electronics and possibly replacement truck parts such as battery, spark plugs, distributor cap, alternator, and other stuff to get the '02 Ford FX4 running after an EMP.
Thanks for any thoughts or help.
