Such a pulse may occur in the form of a radiated electric or magnetic field or conducted electrical current depending on the source, and may be natural or man-made.The term âelectromagnetic pulseâ is commonly abbreviated to the acronym EMP (which is pronounced by saying the letters separately, âE-M-Pâ).In laymanâs terms, it is an intense burst of electromagnetic energy caused by an abrupt and rapid acceleration of charged particles. This is the pulse from a nuclear blast or other EMP weapon. 2  An E2 is a bit slower than an E1. 3  A bolt of lightning has the characteristics of an E2. 4  Because of this, E2 are typically the easiest to protect against. 5  But a nuclear blast or EMP weapon has the characteristics of both an E1 and an E2 pulse.
