Burns are graded in degrees, such as first, second, or third (a few people use fourth, but it is not commonly used). But these designations are based on how much damage the burn does and not on the temperature of the object that caused the burn.
For instance, a fire can cause anywhere from a first to third degree burn, and it is very hot, while a chemical such as lye can also cause a first to third degree burn, but it is room temperature.

At what temperature do you start to get third degree burns?
There is no one specific temperature that will cause one to suffer from third degree burns. This is because the severity of the burn is not only dictated by the temperature of the heat source, but also how a person is exposed (i.e. directly or through cloth) and how long the heat is applied. Even lower temperatures can cause third degree burns if a person is subjected to the heat for long enough. As a general guide, any temperature above 140 degrees will cause immediate third degree burns.
