Hi, i live in the UK and currently studying physics at A-level. I have chosen to investigate EMP and its effect on electrical systems for a project. How would i build a generator? Am i right in saying all i would need is a fairly large capacitor and a spark gap? What sized voltage are we talking here to get a measurable EMP? Could i measure the EMP using an ocsilloscope? I would appreciate it if you could offer some insight. I have a limited knowledge of physics (bare in mind that I am only 17!) so please don't be too complicated in your answers ![Smile :smile: :smile:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
