Reference Electrode Conversion

Convert a measured potential between Cu/CuSO4, Ag/AgCl, SCE, and zinc so you know the target on each electrode.

App id: MEAS-01. Reference version 1.0.

How to fill it

Fill the inputs. The tool shows the outputs.

On the tool screen, Calc is the working sheet. Presets stores values you reuse. Reference is the formula, assumptions, and provenance below.

Formula

Eout = Ein + offsetFrom − offsetTo

Inputs

NameUnit
Measured potential (camera)mV
Source offset to Cu/CuSO4mV
Target offset to Cu/CuSO4mV

Outputs

NameUnit
Converted potential (hero result)mV

Diagnose

This tool does not attach diagnose observations.

Assumptions

  • Offsets are to Cu/CuSO4 (CSE). Example engineering values at ~25 °C, not a licensed table: Cu/CuSO4 0 mV; Ag/AgCl sat. KCl +117 mV (add to Ag reading to get CSE); SCE +72 mV; Zn +1100 mV.

Provenance

  • Offset-to-CSE conversion: Ecse = Ein + offsetFrom; Eout = Ecse − offsetTo.
