There’s no such thing as a mild electrocution for the same reason that you can’t be mildly dead.
Perhaps your husband got a mild electric shock while shorting something out through his ring?

I’m sorry to be that guy. After being shocked. Electrocution results in death. You survive shocks, you don’t survive electrocution.

Glad to see there’s still a spark after all those years

Definitely don’t want to see (HOT), FIRE!, or DIABLO level of electrocution

That’s why you don’t wear jewelry while dealing with electric power

Time to get your guy a voltage detector—lucky he isn’t dead!

Warning: don’t wear rings that can’t be cut. If they can’t cut the ring off your finger, then they gotta cut your finger off.

I hate to be that guy, but if you aren’t dead you haven’t been electrocuted
You’ve been shocked

Mechanic here, this is why I wear silicone rings now. I’d rather not complete a circuit or be degloved.

You should post this on r/electricians as a reminder.

I think since your husband lived to tell the tale, that should be his good luck charm now.

My dad did this. Did your hubby get a long cut along his finger when he took it off?

Had a workmate, many years ago, got some weld patter on his gold wedding band. It was a great lesson in how well gold conducts heat but an unpleasant lesson for him.

That’s why techs never ever wear rings when working on something. Whoever was wearing this got “better buy a lottery ticket” kind of lucky.

Husband is fine thankfully.

“Mild electrocution” is wild
What’s the makeup of the ring?
