Although heckling you is a satisfying pastime, it’s not my primary occupation here. I actually do have some first-hand experience with the topic, and I’ll share some basic preps. First, pour a 6” thick slab of borated concrete for your foundation. If you don’t know about borated concrete, ask.
Then build a 12’ by 18’ metal building atop your new slab... Metal roof and all.
Equip your new EMP garage with the following.
Four air tight jerry-cans of stabilized gasoline, 4 quarts of diesel fuel in individual jars, two dry (unactivated) automotive batteries with the required sulphuric acid in a separate container, your portable generator set, one hot-dip galvanized 30 gallon garbage can with a lid, and one 60’s to early 70’s VW beetle.
Cut the fenders off the beetle (baja buggy style) and mount 4 Goodyear wrangler LT tires (235/75R 15) on the rims.
Pack the galvanized garbage can with a two-way radio of some sort and an electric can opener and put the lid on. Don’t forget to pack an antenna.
Put all of this in the garage and close the door. Now you’re as EMP proof as you’ll ever need to be.
When the next Carrington event occurs, open the garage, fuel your genset and plug in your can opener. Open a can of beans and enjoy. After your nutritious meal, fuel your buggy, (1 jerry-can of fuel plus one quart of diesel),activate (fill) and install one of your automotive batteries. If it requires a top-off charge, use the battery charger you thoughtfully packed in your garbage can with lid...
Drive your fully functional baja buggy (off roading as necessary) until you see a farmhouse with an old tractor parked near the barn.
Stop and ask that man what to do.
You’re now an EMP survivor.
You’re welcome.

Well, back in 1966-67, my job occasionally involved studying the effects of nuclear weapons, and EMP was a well-known phenomenon to us even in those long ago days of yore.
But I guess I wouldn’t claim “first-hand experience” unless I had been somewhere like Johnson Island during the test explosion in 1962 that some people think made the street lights flicker in Hawaii.
