About this file
This is MIL-HDBK-423, a military handbook providing design guidance and examples of good practice for implementing high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) hardening and testing requirements. Published May 15, 1993, the handbook is approved for use by all Department of Defense departments and agencies and reflects the requirements of MIL-STD-188-125 (HEMP Protection for Ground-Based C4I Facilities).
The handbook covers comprehensive HEMP protection implementation across multiple domains: the HEMP environment and system response characteristics; low-risk hardening approaches using electromagnetic barriers; barrier topology development; HEMP shield design and construction including material selection, welding techniques, and seam construction methods; architectural, mechanical, structural, and electrical points-of-entry (POEs) and their protective treatments; grounding and bonding requirements; special protective measures for equipment outside or incompatible with the primary barrier; corrosion control strategies; and testing methodologies including quality assurance, acceptance, and hardness verification testing. The handbook provides detailed guidance on electronic surge arresters, electrical filters, power apparatus for isolation, optical isolation devices, waveguides-below-cutoff, shielded doors, and penetration protection devices. Additionally, it addresses reliability and maintainability, testability design, safety and human engineering considerations, configuration management, hardness maintenance and surveillance (HM/HS) program development, and program management across the facility life cycle. Appendix A contains sample construction specifications for HEMP protection subsystems; Appendix B provides cost data for HEMP protection programs; and Appendix C lists applicable data item descriptions for contract documentation.

1. SCOPE
1.1 Purpose. The two-volume MIL-HDBK-423 handbook set provides information to managers and engineers responsible for the design, construction, testing, and hardness maintenance/hardness surveillance of fixed and transportable ground-based facilities that must be hardened against the high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP). The primary purpose of this Volume I is to provide detailed guidance to implement HEMP protection of fixed facilities in accordance with the requirements of MIL-STD-188-125, "High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) Protection for
Ground-Based C I Facilities Performing Critical, Time-Urgent Missions." Volume II provides similar guidance for ground-mobile and transportable facilities.
1.2 Content. This handbook provides design guidance and examples of good practice to support compliance with the requirements stated in MIL-STD-188-125. That standard calls for the establishment of an electromag
