Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low
Electric And Magnetic Fields

1.
Keep
Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro
magnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such
fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17
years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National
Research Council concluded that: The body of evidence, in the
committees judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to powerfrequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.
However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to be
