Kevin,
I know what the "rules" say--no jewelry including a wedding ring. All I
wear is a watch and ring. I wear them almost always. I had surgery last
week; would part with the watch, but not my ring.
There are times when I remove the ring, like working on a car or in a PTV
in a tight spot., where I temporarily remove it, but that is rare. The
danger (in my opinion) is more mechanical than electrical. Years ago in
the Navy, I was helping load a few hundred typewriters onto a truck to
take to salvage. One of the carriage return levers caught on the wedding
band as I was passing a typewriter down the line. Nearly took off my
finger.
