Grade A is a classification denoting a tighter tolerance on the wire’s millivolt output compared to standard or Grade B wire, ensuring a higher level of measurement accuracy across the temperature range.
‘Hard’ refers to a stiffer, less pliable wire construction compared to ‘soft’ or fine-strand wire. This makes it more suitable for being held rigidly in place or for applications where mechanical stability is needed.
Yes, while the glass braid is high-temperature resistant, it is porous and will absorb water, which can potentially cause a temporary short circuit. It should be kept dry or protected in wet conditions.
