If the transformer generates a magnetic field, it typically extends outward in a predictable pattern. I have an open frame power supply near a graphics card and am considering ways to block the field. The field is likely confined within the transformer itself.

I need some options, like the one on Amazon or ferrite.

The main goal of the transformer core is to restrict the magnetic field within the coil windings instead of allowing it to disperse. There is no requirement to introduce extra shielding. What brings you here?

Thanks for your reply
Just wanted to make sure that im not going to have anything malfunction or get damaged. I will get a picture of everything and you will understand my concern.

Your stated "issues" are quickly pushing you toward being called a "forum troll," along with the necessary consequences.

Sorry, I'm not attempting to violate any guidelines. Just need a photo uploaded so I can understand better.

Maybe if we were discussing CAT scanners or Fusion Reactors, I could become concerned about magnetic fields, but honestly, it's quite overwhelming...
