EMP stands for ElectroMagnetic Pulse. It’s a type of disaster that could literally bring part of the world to the Dark Ages. The power grid would collapse and, in some cases, most if not all your electronics will cease to function.
There are two known ways to prepare for an EMP:

Out of all of the many super disasters that preppers are getting ready for, probably one of the most probable is that of a powerful EMP event. An EMP, or electromagnetic pulse, could be created by a nuclear detonation, naturally occurring cosmic phenomena, or even specialty EMP generator weapons and completely disabled or even totally …
Probably the single most plausible, if not the most likely, mega-disaster facing the modern world today is that posed by an EMP. Specifically, any nuclear- or non-nuclear EMP has the potential to cause widespread, catastrophic damage to the power grid, electronics and any other technology that relies on electronic components. The disruption might be temporary, …
One of the most common disasters that can possibly befall you is a simple power outage. Nothing worse than a passing storm could knock out power in your neighborhood or community, but larger disasters and true catastrophes could knock out the power grid for weeks or even months at a time. Something truly apocalyptic like …
Out of all the potential mega-disasters that we prep for, EMPs are probably the most plausible and the most likely. Gaining widespread attention for the potential destruction they can inflict along with severe second and third-order effects on society, widespread, massively destructive EMPs can be created by nuclear detonations, special EMP weapons, or even natural …
Be it a movie, book, or blog, EMPs are nightmare fuel. Any talk of them brings shivers down our electrically dependent spines. Grid failed. Tools fried. Lives lost. It’s everything a night terror is made of. The mystery of an EMP makes this worse. Will all electronic devices get smoked, or will it be little more …

A powerful EMP event is one of the most devastating things that could possibly happen, and more worryingly also one of the most likely in the pantheon of super disasters. Be it created by a nuclear bomb or other devices, or even the result of powerful cosmic phenomena, an EMP can turn most electronics and …
So, Will an EMP Destroy Electronics That Are Off? Read More »
EMP’s are far and away the most likely and most plausible of the mega-disasters that preppers ready themselves for. Be it a manmade nuclear- or non-nuclear EMP strike or a massively powerful solar event, any major EMP event has the potential to instantly transform our high-tech, electronic world into a scene straight from The Walking …
One of the scariest and most likely society-toppling events that could happen is a large-scale EMP event. A large enough EMP could potentially knock out all power grids and electronic devices across an entire country, plunging us back to the pre-industrial age and into a state of anarchy and chaos. Most of us already know …
An EMP, or electromagnetic pulse, is a sudden burst of electromagnetic radiation. It can be caused by a number of things, including natural events like solar flares and man-made devices like nuclear weapons. When an EMP occurs, it can disrupt or even destroy electronic devices and power systems. These events are thought to be one …
An EMP, or electromagnetic pulse, is a burst of energy that can cause serious damage to electronic devices. It can be caused by a solar flare, a nuclear blast, or even a high-altitude detonation of a specialty EMP-generating weapon. When an EMP occurs, any unshielded devices vulnerable to it will be severely damaged or destroyed. …
