520			_aSAMANIEGO, ALEXANDER JOSEPH R. Faraday's Cage as a Plant Growth Stimulant. Design Project. Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Cavite State University-Cavite College of Arts and Trades Campus, Rosario, Cavite. June 2018. Adviser: Engr. Orlando P. Soberano. Technical critic: Engr. Gee Jay C. Bartolome The study was conducted from May 2016 to April 2017 to develop a Faraday's cage as a plant growth stimulant. Specifically, the study aimed to: 1) design and fabricate a Faraday's cage; 2) evaluate the performance of Faraday's cage and its effect on plant growth by varying the voltage input to the magnetic coil and duration of exposure to desired magnetic flux density; and 3) measure the effects of faraday's cage on plant germination in terms of root length, plant height; and chlorophyll content. The Faraday's cage has an overall dimension of 0.7 m x 0.7 m x 1.2 min length, width and height. The device was divided into three compartments wherein two compartments were allotted as seedling compartment nod the other compartment was reserved for the electric components. The cage was primarily made of aluminum; the basis of selecting the material was its low-cost, strength. durability, and light weight. An 2x3 factorial experiment was designed to evaluate the effects of varying magnetic flux densities (70, 90 and 135 mT) and time of exposure (5, 10, and 15 minutes) to the growth parameters of plants which include plant height, root length, and chlorophyll content. On the basis of these three growth parameters, the results revealed that the highest values were attained using 90 mT of magnetic flux density (6 VDC input to the magnetic wire coil) and 10-minute exposure.
