If you have important files or small electronic devices that you wish to protect from an EMP all you need is a faraday cage.

Build a wooden framed box and wrap that box with fine copper mesh screen. Run a copper wire to a ground. You now have safe electronics. I will be building one as soon as I can find some copper mesh.

An old microwave can offer protection too. Make sure it is plugged in though so that you have the ground connected from your outlet.



Actually if you have an old microwave (with dials) you are better off CUTTING the cord off completely.
