Thermocouple and Extension Wire - Resistance

! Note: These figures are approximations. If you require resistance in OHMS per meter, multiply the value shown by 3.281. * If the thermocouple resistance is a fair percent of the total resistance of your millivolt meter, use these factors for making your calculations.
