Electromagnetic shielding systems and methods for aircraft

Abstract:

An electromagnetic shielding system is configured to shield one or more electrical connections between one or more first electrical cables and one or more second electrical cables. The electromagnetic shielding system includes a base. A first cable coupler is frangibly coupled to the base. The first cable coupler is configured to electrically couple to the first electrical cable(s). A second cable coupler is frangibly coupled to the base. The second cable coupler is configured to electrically couple to the second electrical cable(s). A covering lid is frangibly coupled to the first cable coupler, the second cable coupler, and the base. An electrical connection chamber is defined between the base, the first cable coupler, the second cable coupler, and the covering lid. The first electrical cable(s) are configured to electrically connect to the second electrical cable(s) within the electrical connection chamber.
