DHS Goals to Address EMP and GMD Events
• GOAL 1: Improve risk awareness of electromagnetic threats and hazards
• GOAL 2: Enhance capabilities to protect critical infrastructure from the impact of an electromagnetic incident (including new technology)
• GOAL 3: Promote effective electromagnetic-incident response and recovery efforts

“Best” EMP-Resistant Design Practices: Grounding
• Low impedance ground conductors are essential• 6 inch wide by 0.08” copper is a good size for facility
grounds• Sub-surface ground systems should be low impedance
mesh of welded copper straps rather than a single heavy round wire at the perimeter of the protected area
• Round wire grounds should be avoided at all costs. They are inherently high impedance and reflect fast pulses rather than passing them to ground.
• All cable shields must be grounded at Point of Entry (POE)

“Best” EMP-Resistant Design Practices: Buildings
• Conductors and buildings should be shielded with solid metal which covers all surfaces • Best performance: Seams/joints welded or soldered
• All cable entries must use proper shielding and bypass techniques• Waveguide style cable Points of Entry (POE) are essential • Cable shields need to be grounded to the exterior of the
waveguide POE• Doors must have a continuous electrical contact around
their perimeter when closed• Battery banks should be inside the shielded buildings, and
include shielded vent for hydrogen venting

“Best” IED Design Practices
• Metal shielding on IED modules and chassis
• Use of copper strap/braiddue for lower inductance ground
• Use of Hardware Watchdog Timers
• Use of Error Correcting Code (ECC) Memory
• Use of Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes

IED Performance Categories
Category 1: There were NO IED component failures and the IED continued to operate without interruption
Category 2: There were NO IED component failures, however, the IED locked-up and had to be reset or auto re-booted
Category 3: There were component failures in the IED and normal operation was no longer possible

Conclusions
• Nuclear EMP is a low probability / high consequence event
• Man Made EMP is more probable but only has one wave
• EMP effects manifest themselves through both Radiated and Conducted
signals
• There are many design practices that can be employed to mitigate effects
from both Radiated and Conducted signals
• Testing has demonstrated how a shielded and well grounded control house
can minimize effects from both Radiated and Conducted EMP
• Testing in the industry in ongoing
