THERMOCOUPLEEXTENSON/COMPENSATING
TABLES
Thermocouple extension and compensating cables are designed for interconnercion between
thermocouple probes and control instrumentation. They are generally available in the following types:
Type(1)
Unarmoured cables with conductors insulated with PVC and twisted together in pairs, sheathed overall
with PVC.
Type(2)
Armoured cables with conductors insulated with PVC and twisted together in pairs, PVC bedding,
Galvanised steel wirearmourand sheathed overall with PVC.
All of the above types of cables ¢an be suppliedunscreened or screened (individually, collectively or both)
with an Aluminium Polystertape screenincorporating tinned copper drain wire.
The construction is similar to paired instrumentation cable but the conductor material is different.
Thermocouple are used in processes to sense temperature and is connected to the pyrometers for
indication and control. The thermocouple and pyrometers are electrically connected by thermocouple
extension/compensating cables. The conductors used for these cables are required to have similar
thermo-electric (emf) properties as that of thethermocouple usedforsensingthetemperature.
Screen Aluminium Polyester tape screen with Copper drain wire or alternately with
Tinned Copper wire braiding. Individual element or overall screening as
specified.
Armouring
Galvanised steel round wire/ Flat wire.

Installation methods for current rating "Enclosed in conduit on a wall or in trunking" in accordance with BS7671/EE Wiring Regulations. The tabulated
ratings are based upon a 30°C ambient temperature and 90° C operating temperature. For other ambient temperatures or where several circuits are
grouped together, the following rating factor should be applied.
