Those of us who are either in-house or independent EMC consultants can benefit greatly by assembling our own EMI troubleshooting kit. I’ve depended on my own kit for several years and it has proven not only valuable, but depicts a sense of professionalism in dealing with your own product development engineers, their managers, or your clients, as the case may be. Mine is designed around a Pelican 1514 roller case (http://www.pelican.com) that includes a padded divider, so it is easy to transport to the area needed. You’ll also want to order the optional lid organizer, model 1519, for carrying extra tools, cables, and other small parts. See Figure 1.
This article will summarize what I’ve included in my own kit, and because everyone’s needs might be a little different, you’ll want to use this information as a guide.

Would this kit include a number of heavy gage Aluminium foil rolls?
Good info. U should start a ping list here on GR.
GR should be FR, FreeRepublic
I really really really hate autocorrect.
Really.
I worked in a large research lab, they made a single room into a Faraday cage for electron microscopy shielding.
Surprisingly to me, it was 3/8 inch thick aluminum plate. Walls floor, ceiling, all-welded. With elaborate traps on the air vents and doors, filters on power lines.$$$
And they still had complaints about worker’s machinery in nearby areas?
The foil stuff may not be effective?
No. PCB antennas, cables, etc.
How would I do that?
You send out a ping to everyone so fa who has commented on your articles. If they don’t wanna be on your list, you delete them from your list.
It’s kinda simple. Please add me to your ping list.
