IIRC, Marc Miller talked about this somewhere when discussing battle dress armor in his Traveller RPG. Be a couple of decades ago in prior art intellectual property. :)

That said, the concept has been used before in "Real Life". Electric power workers wear faraday suits when working on very high voltage equipment.

That's why superheated plasma is so much more useful in a portable energy weapon. Messy.
