Thermocouple Junctions
There are three types of thermocouple junctions:
• Grounded Junction - The measuring junction is physically connected to the
protective metal sheath providing electrical continuity between junction and
sheath.
• Ungrounded Junction - The measuring junction is electrically isolated from
the protective metal sheath. (Also called Insulated Junction.)
• Exposed Junction - Does not have a protective metal sheath so the
measuring junction is exposed.
The illustration that follows shows each of the three thermocouple types.
