am misunderstood. I never used the tem Faraday cage. I understand the
Faraday cage to be a completely shielded enclosure which could be a
metal automobiole body, a steel rebar reinforced concrete structure
or a screened room. These all tend to completely block both the
E-field and the H-field components of an electromagnetic wave.
Sorry, I meant "Faraday screen", which is the term you used, and I used
in my posting explaining its operation.
If you block either the E or H field, you also block the other. You
can't independently block one or the other.

Why would one pay a lot of extra money for a transformer which
eliminated capacitive coupling if it didn`t work, especially in
Havana, Cuba?
Because in order to "work" it doesn't need to "eliminate capacitive
coupling". All it needs to do is locally reduce the E/H field ratio,
which is what it does.
