Re: Shielding for electromagnetic fields

[Mike Durham <mdurham@lsuvm.sncc.lsu.edu>]

Conductive mats may be effective against electric fields.  However it seems to
me that electromagnetic fields must be shielded through an enclosure of ferrous
metal to short circuit the magnetic field around the person.  What purpose do
you intend to use the shield for?
