How Do I Build a Faraday Cage?


Can anyone provide info on how to best and most cost effectively build a Faraday Cage? Trying to conquer RFI entering tube phono stages? I hope to enclose the phono stage and perhaps the line stage. How do you deal with interconnects, etc. Thanks,

Eldartford has it right from a physics point of view.

Practically speaking, we also used to use metal window screen material (stands up better & you can see through it). Then just run a wire to ground (if you use a water pipe, have to make sure that there is no plastic splice to break ground...for experimental purposes, we used to bury a piece of foil/screen about 1 foot deep & soak the ground with water).

good luck,
