Bannakaffalatta unleashing an EMP pulse. (TV: Voyage of the Damned)

An electromagnetic pulse (also known as EMP) was a discharge of electromagnetic radiation that could render the technology of certain races temporarily inert.

Uses

In Pete's World, the Preachers possessed electromagnetic bombs created by Angela Price that were used to destroy computers. Using one on a Cyberman had the effect of crippling it and disabling its emotional inhibitor. (TV: The Age of Steel) An EMP device was used when the Preachers attacked the Cybus factory in Paris. (GAME: Save Paris)

Since Bannakaffalatta was a cyborg, his body contained an EMP device, which was capable of shutting down Heavenly Hosts. However, they were only stunned temporarily. In using the electromagnetic pulse, Bannakaffalatta drained almost all his power, dying shortly after. However, Mr Copper, Astrid Peth and Rickston Slade were able to obtain the EMP device, recharged it, and used it as a weapon against the other Hosts. (TV: Voyage of the Damned)

Very large and powerful EMPs could disable spaceships. (PROSE: The Price of Paradise)
