Answer / s.selvakumar
two wire RTD use for short distance,three wire RTD use for
long distance because of resistance compensation.

Answer / vidnyan patil
Two wire RTD used for short distance like compressor ,pump
and three wire RTD used for long distance from field to
control room.so outside atmospheric temp.present so we need
compensation resistance.Third wire used for compensation of
lead wire resistance

Answer / carl_ellis
A 2 wire RTD has no means of compensating for lead wire
resistance so the reading from a 2 wire RTD will always have
some positive error due to lead wire resistance.
A 3 wire RTD can be connected to an appropriate circuit that
compensates for the resistance of the lead wires by
accounting for the resistance of the 3rd wire, which is
presumably the same length and gauge as the other two wires
across the resistance element.

Someone Please tell me what are the Pre-Commissioning activities in a Thermal Power Plant for an instrumentaion Engg.
In turbine, what does term CDP, NI, NH, HSSOC, means
why we are using magnet for calibration of gas detector?
An engineering term STALL used in compressor operation what it means?
Generally in which location ( JB or IO card or DCS) the thermocouple compensation is done.Also where they measure the atmosphere temp ( for compensation) in JB OR DCS panel? How they compensating that atmosphere temp? is any circuit for that ( like in rtd wheatstone bridge)?
