Do you need to use TC extension wire to connect a thermocouple or can you use shielded cable?

You must use thermocouple wire (of the same type as the thermocouple) to extend the circuit. If you switch to a different wire the point of connection between the two becomes a thermocouple junction itself, and the resulting voltage from that junction will skew your reading.
You can use any wire to extend a thermocouple connection if you know the temperature of the junction where the thermocouple wire ends--this becomes the reference junction.

Can you use b type thermocouple extension wire for a s type thermocouple?
No If you want to maintain reasonable accuracy you must use the correct type of compensating or extension cable to match the sensor. The accuracy of the system depends on all system components. The output is generated when the wires are in thermal gradients, so if there is any thermal gradient across the compensating/extension cable you will get errors if you do not use the correct type www.peaksensors.co.uk
What is thermocouple cable?
The thermocouple is an sesnsing device , when the temperature increases it increases the voltage , that voltage is used for tripping purpose

What is the difference between beldan shielded and unshielded cable?
Shielded cable, when the shield is properly grounded, will minimize the amount of EM noise that reaches the shielded conductors.
What is the meaning of stp cable?
Shielded Twisted pair cable
Where in a vehicle would you find a shielded cable?
In various places - electrical wires and cables are shielded to stop wearing through, or getting wet, the hand brake cable is also shielded to prevent corrosion, was there a specific cable you wanted to know about ?
Why there is no interference in twisted pair cable?
there is. shielded cable reduces the interference though
What is thermocouple cable?
The thermocouple is an sesnsing device , when the temperature increases it increases the voltage , that voltage is used for tripping purpose
Why is it more expensive to use shielded cable?
Manufacturing shielded cable is more expensive to produce than others types of wiring. This extra cost will be passed on to the consumer of the product.
What is a snake cable?
A snake cable is a multi-pair audio cable containing individually shielded or jacketed, cables.
What kind of cable is used to make usb cables?

What are some application of shielded copper cable?
A very common application is the health care field. Shielded copper cable is often used in health care facilities for its efficiency and resistance to flame.
What cable will you need to run a 63 amp fuse?
6awg/2C in shielded tech cable if it is to be exposed.
