You certainly couldn't parallel two different voltage sources IF

many now, but there's a bunch) Half are used for the FCU and half
for the Temperature Datum System.

Did you know that the major failure mode for a theromocouple is a short?

Consider, Gord, that making your little friends look less foolish is only
making you look foolish.

Even if you were to make an "average", you would need a "total" first.
