A temperature measurement requires an uncertainty of ±1 °C (95%) at a temperature of 100 °C. A standard T-type thermocouple is to be used with a readout device that provides electronic ice-point reference junction compensation, and has a stated instrument uncertainty of ±0.25 °C (95%) with 0.05 °C resolution. Determine whether the uncertainty constraint is met at the design stage.
