I need to replace my spigot and need to solder. Will heating up the pipe affect the grounding wire?

I am replacing my spigot and need to solder (at red arrow) a few inches away from a grounding clamp. Is this okay to do or do I need to remove the grounding wire first? I’m not sure if heating the pipe will affect the electrical. If I must remove it, please advise on the proper way to do so. Thanks
