Easy - there's all manner of conductive transparent films.. Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) is used on LCD displays and heated windshields, for instance. A thin aluminum layer is conductive and "mostly" transparent

But you don't want a "conductive tube", per se.

Since the coupling between primary and secondary is magnetic, it would be pretty easy to have a conductive surface that doesn't form a ring, and passes the magnetic field.

Imagine a set of vertical stripes or wires, for instance - it won't support the current flow "around" the secondary, but will support flow "along" the secondary (think transformer laminations for a magnetic field equivalent)

But, you want it to be conductive, but not a *conductor* or it will perturb the field between top load and ground.





Ok, now you've got my attention.

instead of an open ring or even a closed ring, how about an EM transparent
but conductive  "curtain" to protect the secondary?

I was thinking something on the lines of Carbon fiber fabric held in place
with some type of plastic ring assembly...

just a thought  :)
