Contents of a Faraday Cage are shielded from static electrical fields. The term is named after the individual that discovered the property of the structure, Michael Faraday. It is a metal cage that is an electromagnetic shield.

Individuals in amateur radio are interested in the properties of the Faraday Cage.

Individuals that work with electric utilities and AC also are interested in the design from an engineering perspective.

Crazy "cooks" known as "survivalists" and "preppers" are also interested in the protective properties of the Faraday Cage in a misguided belief that it will help them protect their electronics from an EMP pulse attack. They are just crazy.
