Connecting Thermocouples

NOTE!

Connect thermocouple shields directly to a good
frame or chassis ground. Connect thermocouple
shields at one end only, either near the terminal board
or the sensor end.

A thermocouple is connected in a differential configuration by
wiring the positive signal lead to the

A

terminal of the proper

input and the negative signal lead to the

B

terminal of the

same input. The designators are located on the terminal block
cards near each screw terminal. See Figure 2.31.
