Lucky for potters the amount of electricity is very precise and can be measured and correlated to a temperature to be interpreted by a computer controller. Different types of thermocouples are made from different metals. Most kilns used by home and studio potters use what is called a Type K Thermocouple which are made from chromel and alumel and are inexpensive and fairly accurate. Type S Thermocouples are made from platinum and rhodium and are more expensive but more accurate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need to replace the porcelain block and wire if I replace the thermocouple?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. As long as the wire and block are not damaged or corroded you will not need to replace them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich wire is positive and which is negative?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a thermocouple the red wire is negative and the yellow wire is positive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHelp!

Different types of thermocouples are made from different metals. Most kilns used by home and studio potters use what is called a Type K Thermocouple which are made from chromel and alumel and are inexpensive and fairly accurate.

Different types of thermocouples are made from different metals. Most kilns used by home and studio potters use what is called a Type K Thermocouple which are made from chromel and alumel and are inexpensive and fairly accurate.
