When I wore a wrist watch I always took it and my wedding ring off before working on heavy equipment or working on electrical panels.
Have never worn a wedding ring because of electrical dangers plus easy to get a ring caught at emergencies and instantly lose a finger. Quite a few other firefighters did the same. Also, never wore a watch on duty. Metal watch bands are a hazard anytime you are working on vehicles.

That looks painful, never wore a ring or anything on my wrist after I started my apprenticeship, big no no in skilled trades.
You have my heart felt sympathy, ouch !
That's why I never wore a wedding ring and my watches are plastic.
Maybe I'll remove my ring ?? I've snagged it a few times while unlatching the Joey bed.
I'm considering myself warned...
Spent much of my career in a lab with various electrical equipment and my father spend his entire career around metalworking equipment. It was ingrained in me early - no jewelry, no watches, no ties or necklaces, no loose clothing around anything we worked on or with.
And there is no more important piece of safety equipment than these (tapping eyewear), safety glasses. - Norm Abram
Barry I was so glad to see that the picture was not of you. I knew a mean grumpy old man that almost burned his finger off. Wedding band and starter solenoid. Married his niece. Another danger to a person that works with their hand is chemical burns. Seen many a lime burn working concrete. My brother once had to go to hospital for them. Then sepsis. Bad news. Stay attached to your extremities. Best wedding band I've ever seen was tattooed, problem now it has the wrong name on it. (Not me)
