Abstract
A transmission system is provided for a power source to transfer power to equipment housed within a Faraday cage. The transmission system transfers energy along a non-conductive path yet remains in conductive contact with the Faraday cage. This prevents EMI disturbing electrical power provided within the Faraday cage and damaging equipment housed within the cage. The transmission system enables mains power to be transmitted to equipment housed within the Faraday cage without the need to provide conventional electric filters. The performance of the Faraday cage in shielding electromagnetic radiation is not compromised. Nor is the ability of the Faraday cage to shield electromagnetic radiation generated by communications equipment within the cage compromised.
