Re: [RE-wrenches] Ferrites for EMP/solar flare protection?

I am not seeing how ferrites can stop EMP. The frequencies involved will affect diode junction level electronics. Ferrites may lessen the induced surge picked up by the conductors between the array and the inverter/charge controller, but unless the electronics are hardened too, I don’t believe
