Nearly every time a thunder storm rolls through our neck of North Florida we blow all six of out SLC500's thermocouple cards. I think poorly of the design specs which didn't require shielded wire, and permitted the use of #21 J type thermocouple wire with exposed junction's three hundred feet away in a separate structure. Has anyone used a MOV terminal strip to isolate their thermocouples? Does such a device exist?
Oh, I already understand I need to pull a larger size shielded wire to keep my loop resistance under 100 Ohms. Alas, this is a tuff sell because is says loudly "Someone screwed up"... Thanks in advance for any advice...
