When It comes to getting ready for an EMP, there are a few things one can do.
1) Build a Faraday cage. You can use a metal garbage can as a start. Line inside of can with cardboard and use Aluminum tape to seal any holes or punctures. Also, go over seams on can with Aluminum duct tape. Get very ferraday bag and inserted it into can like garbage bag liner.
2) Get extra MPPT controllers, keep in box and wrap like a gift 5 times, same with AC/DC Inverters. See what type or rating your solar panels have for Diodes can get extras. Also get extra BMS's for batteries, keep in box and wrap 5 times.
Make list of all items going into ferraday can. Place all items into can. Heat seal bag with curling iron or heat gun. Be very very careful doing this.
Make sure lid fits tightly and use Aluminum tape to seal edge around can.
This is what I'm doing. Making sure I can recover and have extras on hand in Ferraday cages...
REMEMBER: YOU HAVE 1 CHANCE TO SURVIVE AN EMP ATTACK.
On my solar panels and wire rings from panels and on all electrical gear I have ferrites all over.
I also have had installed Siemens FS140 Whole house surge protector as extra protection...
Yup, I approached this with a belt and suspenders attack. Over kill is better then getting hit.
Just my 2 cents
Good luck
