Are lip studs (and other body jewelry) electro-conductive?

Normally, studs and the like are of silver or gold which are excellent electrical conductors.

If there’s enough voltage, electricity will travel through in either of your examples. It might be your last experience, however. One final masochistic experience for the body piercing enthusiast. Enjoy!

Most wouldn’t last long. Applying enough voltage to ake a connection would melt most pieces rather quickly.
It would make for an interesting threat.
There have been people hit with heavy voltage, like lightning and power lines who lived, but their wedding ring melted on the finger.

In short, no. Let’s say you are holding two wires and put an electrical current through them, the current will go through your body like it normally would, accounting for some resistance.

Attaching those wires to a stud or ring or whatever would do the same thing. It’s just like adding a bit of wire to the original circuit.

Actually, let me amend my comment above: They are electroconductive, but they wouldn’t be any different than, say, holding two pieces of wire.

I would add that when placing the pads of an AED when performing CPR, you’re supposed to make sure the pads aren’t in direct contact with any metal jewelry, although you’re not supposed to take the time to remove any existing piercings.

That is a point I hadn’t considered before.
