[ausev] Trike conversion: Remedial EM Sheilding question.

[Clendon Gibson]

If you are worried about the electric portion of the electro-magnetic field, the a metal casing around the offending generator/motor will do the trick. It does not have to be especially thick. The idea being to build a Faraday cage around the generator/motor, or what have you. 

If you are worried about the magnetic portion, then I don't really know. Although, if your motor has a ferrous metal core (the thing that holds the motor windings) then most (like ~99%) should be going through that.

I've been looking on the net for a site that can help me answer one simple
question:
 Is there remedial EM sheilding that can be effective if you are sitting ten
inches away from an 8 inch diameter  DC electric motor at 96 to 120 volts,
probably fluxing at 15 thousand watts?    Yes or no?
(Preferring not to be the conduit for that EM feild in alignment with the
motor one way or another.)
