Wikipedia: A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure used to block electromagnetic fields. A Faraday shield may be formed by a continuous covering of conductive material, or in the case of a Faraday cage, by a mesh of such materials. Faraday cages are named after scientist Michael Faraday, who first constructed one in 1836.
A microwave oven in your kitchen is boxed in a Faraday Cage to prevent microwaves from cooking outside the box.
