All this talk about thermal EMFs may not be particularly relevant. Solder is used in connections between two metallic objects, like wire and a terminal. The thermal EMFs between a soldered copper wire and copper terminal have exactly equal and opposite values between the solder and the metals. I

Hello, I do not know exactly how the Seebeck coefficients are "mixed" within a alloy. Silver and copper have near equal coefficients. Sn should be similar to Pb on the same side of Cu. On the other side of Cu there are Cd (no longer allowed for ROHS) and Sb (Antimony) and Ge (Germanium). So I
