Abstract: An enclosure to protect people and instruments from the effects of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) is provided. The enclosure includes a floor assembly; walls extending upward on a first, second, third, and fourth side of the floor assembly; a roof; and a ceiling. On the interior of the enclosure, a shield layer is provided such that the enclosure forms a six-sided Faraday cage. Fasteners and other conductive securement materials such as copper tape help achieve the conductivity of the shield layer. Extending through the walls of the enclosure may be secure points of entry allowing for people, air, and conductors to securely enter and exit the enclosure. The enclosure contains a grounding system to assist with protecting the contents of the enclosure from the effects of the EMP.
