Description
This standard establishes uniformity in the designation of thermocouples and extension wires and provides, by means of the color of its insulation, an identification of its type or composition as well as its polarity when used as part of a thermocouple system.
Coverage includes:
- coding of thermocouple wire and extension wires;
- terminology, wire size, upper temperature limit, and initial calibration tolerance for thermocouples and extension wire;
- non-ceramic insulation of thermocouple and extension wires;
- temperature-emf tables for thermocouples.
Also includes appendices, tables and diagrams.
