Induction cooking safe

Question

I know that induction cooking works because of eddy current flowing through the ferromagnetic pot, what i am interested is whether this current flow will cause an electric shock to us when we touch the pot since the current will flow through us.

Answer 1

No, The plates themselves are earthed - Eddy currents are formed within the material - and this is why it heats up.

I've seen them manufacturing components using a large copper loop. A steel component id held in it BY HAND - and the other end of the component heats up to red hot within 5 seconds.
