I know with radio waves it depends on the frequency and the size of the holes in the cage. Higher frequencies need increasingly smaller holes to prevent radio waves from entering. Around 2mm at 5ghz if what I’ve read is correct.
I’m guessing the type of material, thickness, etc may play a role too.
What I don’t know is how much of this, if any, applies to a huge blast of the sun"s toxic ass plasma hitting us in the face.
I know that microwaves are designed to block up to, iirc, 2.4ghz
Electrical work is one of the many important skills I lack. I am not sure if I could open the microwave, remove the motor, close it again, and guarantee that the cage still works
I’m not sure how well a faraday cage would protect against something like this. Maybe a lot maybe not as much as you’d think.
Total em shielding would probably be a better option.
I’ve got my foil hat on.
AFAIK it should protect it. Maybe even from any electromagnetic activity. But once away, I struggle with electronics and electricity

Probably just use the same microwave and throw the motor inside.
