In this video, we explain the best practices for extending thermocouple wires to maintain accuracy and signal integrity in your temperature measurement system. Use the correct extension wire — always match the thermocouple type (K, J, T, etc.) to prevent voltage errors. Observe polarity — reversing the leads will result in inaccurate readings. Ensure clean, secure connections — use thermocouple-grade connectors or crimp terminals, not solder joints. Following these guidelines helps prevent signal drift, noise interference, and false junctions — ensuring your thermocouple delivers reliable, long-term performance.
