A novel fabric combination is provided to absorb electromagnetic radiation (ER) and electromagnetic field (EMF) waves. The fabric combination may be shaped into a wearable garment or an electronics case or cover. The fabric combination includes carbon yarn or carbon pieces, elastic yarn, and a soft yarn, such a wool or cotton. No metals configured to reflect ER and EMF waves are used, such as silver. The elastic yarn is a carbon stretch yarn made up of synthetic elastic fabric, such as spandex, and carbon fibers. The fabric combination absorbs ER and EMF waves from the environment, produced by electric devices, such as phones, laptops, tablet computers, microwaves, ovens, robots, 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi radiation, Bluetooth, or any other device or environmental sources emitting ER and EMF.

An electromagnetic camouflage shield comprises a flexible conductive layer and a textile layer. The shield includes at least one outward facing fibrous face, and is creped with at least 5% increased elongation to enhance its flexibility and effective EM thickness. The conductive layer can be the textile layer, or a separate layer. In embodiments, the conductive layer is one of a woven that incorporates metallic yarns, a textile having an electroless plated metal coating, a metal mesh, a thin layer of foil, and an elastomeric layer having a conductive and/or ferrite filler. The textile layer can be a woven or non-woven. Embodiments are fashioned into shirts, pants, and/or other clothing, and can provide drape and moisture vapor transport for enhanced comfort.

The device for checking lack of voltage in an electric circuit comprises a pair of flexible and insulating gloves (1a, 1b), a lack of voltage checking device (2) comprising at least one display screen (3) and two contact points (4), said device being noteworthy in that the lack of voltage checking device (2) is formed in a flexible electronic circuit comprising a flexible substrate and embedded in a first glove (1a) of the pair of flexible and insulating gloves (1a, 1a), said display screen (3) being flush on the surface of said glove (1a).

An electrical safety system and method is provided which includes a flexible electrical safety vest, a lifeline coupled with the vest in various configurations, and leg straps. The electrical safety vest includes a number of loops which are used to couple the lifeline in a variety of relationships that enable different types of maneuvering of a worker with relation to a hazard. Various embodiments of the invention can be used to rapidly and safety remove a worker from proximity to an immediate threat to their life, health, or safety. Direct and indirect extraction from a danger are enabled. A variety of methods are also provided for operating various embodiments of the invention.

Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a system for increasing the protection against electric shocks of a person working in proximity to an electrical system. In one example embodiment, the system includes a plurality of first radio terminals, via each of which a radio link for receiving an emergency signal can be established. The system further including a protective device to be worn by the person and for detecting an electrical body current. The protective device including a second radio terminal that, in the event that an unacceptable body current is detected, outputs and transmits an emergency signal via a radio link established between one of the first plurality of radio terminals and the second radio terminal.

An electromagnetic wave protector to be attached to a portion of a body in order to shield the portion from an electromagnetic wave is provided. The electromagnetic wave protector includes an electromagnetic wave shielding net and a resin cover. The electromagnetic wave shielding net has a mesh shape made of a conductive fiber and has a shape corresponding to an outer shape of the portion. The resin cover surrounds the electromagnetic wave shielding net.
