The cage attenuates time varying magnetic fields too, because they induce currents on it that generate opposite magnetic fields.
Care must be taken on wires entering the cage. They shall pass through filters, otherwise they works as antennas, and the cage then really serves just to stop sparks. It is actually very difficult to make an effective Faraday cage for this application. It would be simpler, and probably equally effective, to just use something to impede people from getting too close.
