I am currently in the Marines as an electrician working on F-18 jets. are tungsten carbide rings conductive? Could it be dangerous working around wires? I don’t want to take my wedding ring off, but I also want to be safe.
According to the site in the sources bar it is very conductive. Whoever your Higher-up is will probably be able to give you a definitive answer though.

1.7–2.2×10-7 Ohm·m
If you have a high current running around and a voltage over 50 dc, my guess is that you probably shouldn’t tempt the fates. It is better to be safe than wonder if your wife looks good in black.
