1-5. EMF Information
Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric
and magnetic fields (EMF).The current from arc welding (and allied pro-
cesses including spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, and induc-
tion heating operations) creates an EMF field around the welding circuit.
EMF fields can interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pacemakers.
Protective measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be
taken. For example, restrict access for passers−by or conduct individu-
al risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the following pro-
cedures 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.

possible.

7. Do not weld whilst carrying the welding power source or wire
feeder.
About Implanted Medical Devices:
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the
device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.
If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom-
mended.
