Summary:This letter investigates the strength of an electric field that penetrates a cabinet containing digital equipment for a nuclear power plant. Based on Helmholtz's equation in conjunction with both the separation of variables and the Fourier transform, we utilize the mode-matching method to obtain a set of simultaneous equations for modal coefficients. We computationally examine the strength behavior of an electric field near the digital equipment in a cabinet when a plane wave with transverse electric polarization is applied to an open cabinet.
