  Types of Thermocouple      Thermocouple is a device (sensor) that is used to measure the temperature which can not be measured by using normal thermometer. It works on principle of Thomas Seebeck effect . According to which when metal is heated at one end and other is kept cold then a slight potential difference generates between both ends and an emf cause to flow of current which can be measured by multimeter. According to the type of use and range of measurment of temperature thermocouple are made of different metals , of different diameter are of following types:: 1. Type B thermocouple  2. Type C thermocouple 3. Type E thermocouple  4. Type J thermocouple 5. Type K thermocouple 6. Type N thermocouple 7. Type R thermocouple 8. Type S thermocouple 9. Type T thermocouple 10. Tungsten & tungsten Rhenium thermocouple       Thermocouple are commonly used in industries,offices,big organizations due to its large range and technical specifications. It is manufactured in different type
