Thermocouples generate power based on a temperature difference between the
cold junction and the hot junction. If both are at the same temperature,
no voltage. You might look at it as the two junctions generating voltages
of opposite polarity that are in series, so you could TRY to have just one
junction. But, it appears when you wire the circuit together, you always
have two junctions.
