aroundtheweldingcircuit.EMFfieldsmayinterferewithsome
medicalimplants,e.g.Pacemakers.Protectivemeasuresfor
personswearingmedicalimplantshavetobetaken.Forexample,
restrictaccessforpassersbyorconductindividualriskassessment
forwelders.Allweldersshouldusethefollowingproceduresin
ordertominimizeexposuretoEMFfieldsfromtheweldingcircuit:
1. Keepcablesclosetogetherbytwistingortapingthem,or
usingacablecover.
2. Donotplaceyourbodybetweenweldingcables.Arrange
cablestoonesideandawayfromtheoperator.
3. Donotcoilordrapecablesaroundyourbody.
4. Keepheadandtrunkasfarawayfromtheequipmentinthe
weldingcircuitaspossible.
5. Connectworkclamptoworkpieceasclosetotheweldas
possible.
