Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing including a first surface, a second surface and a conductive frame disposed between the first surface and the second surface and including a through-hole, a first electrode is movable within the through-hole, a part of the first electrode protruding to outside of the conductive frame, a second electrode disposed on the second surface, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to identify whether the first electrode is electrically disconnected to the conductive frame, obtain an information about the user' body through the first electrode and the second electrode, and refrain from obtaining the information based on identifying the first electrode is electrically connected to the conductive frame.
