(Electrical Hazards) Keep the person warm. Electrical shock Fire Safety -occurs when low resistance body becomes a path of an electric current completing the circuit. Amount of Current and its Effects to the Human Body Soldering Always assume the soldering iron is hot. Do not use your body parts to check if the tip is hot. Put the soldering iron in its holder when idling. Wipe it on a damp sponge or approved tip cleaner and do not shake excess solder off the tip; If another person needs the soldering iron, do not pass a soldering iron to another person. Let the other person take it from the place where you put it. Do not solder on a circuit that has power applied to it. Always use a grounded-tip soldering iron Always make sure that the wire is not near the soldering iron.
