Abstract
An input module includes a terminal block defining a plurality of terminals. Each terminal includes an opening to receive an external wire. The electrical connector assembly is received by at least one terminal and includes an internal thermocouple and a pivot member. The internal thermocouple has a first leg and a second leg coupled together at a first end of the internal thermocouple and spaced apart to define a jaw connector at a second end. The pivot member is pivotable to couple the external wire to the first end. The input module includes a printed circuit board to be coupled to the electrical connector assembly via the jaw connector. The printed circuit board includes a processing circuit to perform cold junction compensation based on a temperature of the printed circuit board and a temperature or a voltage of the internal thermocouple.
