To obtainaccurate meter readings, the oold Junction musteither be kept at a constant temperature or meansmust be provided for compensating for changes intemperature. To maintain a constant temperature,one method employed is to pack the cold Junction inice, a thermos bottle containing the ice, beingused for portable sets and some similar heat-con-taining device for permanent installations. Theice pack will last for about 24 hours, and it keepsthe cold junction at a cons
