What is the compensation of thermocouple

Answer Posted / carl_ellis

Cold junction (CJ) or ice point compensation is the temperature measurement of the terminal connection temperature.  The difference between the CJ measurement and the freezing point of water is added to the thermocouple's gradient temperature measurement.

Cold junction can be measured by thermistor, RTD, or solid state junction.
