|
If proper precautions are not taken then welding a metal arc by hand can be a dangerous practice. An electric arc opens between the electrode and the metal to be connected consists the welding process. In addition to the prejudiced risks of burns and flamation of the eyes, which is corrected by using personal protective equipment, the operator is also be at risk of electric shock at open parts of the welding circuit, both the electrode and the work piece. Additionally, welding current, by deviation from the desired path, can also play part on local heating of other places, with risks of causing fires or any explosions. Due to the high current required for arc welding equipment, operators are also exposed to strong magnetic fields. This paper seeks to clarify the issues mentioned above, mainly because the risks associated with electric shocks may not be known to burners and their managers. |
