RE: Can tape over the probe cause erroneous readings?
I always place a couple of strips of lightweight bright colored tape over the sensor caps and write "DO NOT DOSTURB" on the tape. This seems to work to keep the trades respectful of the testing process (until today). My return trip after 72 hours revealed a couple of locations where someone removed the tape, wadded it up and left it next to the open sensor. Very professional behavior, eh?
