I have an Auber PID wired to a k-type thermocouple meant to be placed in the air for kiln temp measuring and I would like to add another thermocouple meant for a thermowell to the system (the air sensor has an attached nut that won't fit inside the thermowell). Ideally, I would like to have a switch on the control panel that would allow me to toggle between the air and thermowell sensor. Would a standard electrical toggle switch work or would splicing this into the thermocouple wires screw them up?
Alternatively, if I cut the wires to the air thermocouple and attached them to the new thermocouple to just replace it and give it a longer reach, would this be ok or will this also screw up how it works?
