Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.
An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) or magnetic bombard was a powerful burst of electromagnetic radiation. It was often used in weaponry designed to suppress technological systems.
They were primarily used to disable droids and electronics; however, a sufficiently powerful EMP could also kill organic life through electrocution.
