I have just moved into a multi-family house, and where I planned to set up my bedroom, there is an electrical panel inside the wall that serves the entire building. All the wiring converges there. Although the access to the panel is on the other side of the wall, so not inside my bedroom, I am still concerned about potential negative health effects from electromagnetic fields. Unfortunately, rearranging the rooms is not an option.
As a non-expert, what options do I have to protect myself from electromagnetic fields? Is there some kind of shielding that I could install on the wall?

How do shielding materials work?[/h] When electromagnetic pollution hits a shielding material, there are three possible outcomes for the radiation:

- The material reflects the radiation
- The material partially allows the radiation to pass through
- The material absorbs the radiation

A question for builder Egon: "Fabric absorbs radiation"? How is that supposed to work physically, like a radiation storage?

I don’t know exactly how it works, but that’s not really important 😉
