A linear response of the electron system of a layered conductor in the presence of a temperature gradient is investigated theoretically. We have found the dependencies of the thermo-emf on the temperature and on an external magnetic field, the experimental study of which allows to determine the structure of charge carriers energy spectrum as well as to examine different relaxation mechanisms in the system of conduction electrons.
