[quote:Anonymous Coward 14981250:MV8xODc3ODcxXzMxMzQwNDgyXzc5QzA1RTkw] IF you can secure the room or space from the pulse you still have to block any electro waves via network and electrical Network would need fiber option that passes between the wall or mesh. Electrical is tricky and I think impossible as it needs to be Isolated electrical with an isolation unit but I wouldnt trust it and besides if everything outside the box is fried whats the point. You can always have a UPS with extra batteries charged Inside the space. Really depends on what your doing. Is this a small space like a box or a room [/quote]

Hello everyone.
Here is my interest and please feel free to ask questions. What I want is to build a Faraday Cage using tightly woven aluminum window screen mesh to keep all Radio Frequencies (1 MHz to 300+ GHz) out of this enclosure so that there is no RF signals entering or exiting the cage. What I would like to know is a few things. First is it possible to bring in power i.e. via a power bar power cable and a lan cable into this RF protected screen room without compromising (leakage) the room ? Secondly are there any places out there (online including) that I can purchase or download a design so that a general contractor can construct this enclosure. I need to construct a room, including a door of about 6' x 6' x 5' (L x W x H) which will house certain computerized items. Lastly will aluminum (window screen) mesh with spacing of a maximum 1 mm work for the entire frequency range ? This project is simply an experiment of mine and there is no other purpose of doing so. I also need to be able to disassemble the cage in the future in the event I decide to move out and move to a different house. Unfortunately I am not a contractor however I will give it a go in case I cannot find anyone who might be able to construct this room. Does anyone know of any architects or engineers that can layout the design in order to construct this room ? It does not matter where these professionals are located inside North America even though I am in Ottawa, Canada.
One final note does anyone know if the special paint that is mentioned on the net that keeps out RF Radiation actually works ? Would applying this paint be as effective as the above described enclosure in keeping out all RF signals ? Would it work as a compliment to the enclosure ?
Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
