Question
In a thermocouple temperature transducer, the output voltage is usually measured by
Options
A. high resistance ammeter
B. high resistance voltmeter
C. high resistance milli-voltmeter
D. none of the above

Correct Answer

high resistance milli-voltmeter

Explanation

The output voltage is very small. So we need a milli voltmeter.
