A lot of my specs read to use dedicated neutrals but if shared neutrals are used all circuits must be disconnected simultaneously.
Anyone ever do they analysis whether a MWBC using handle ties it a multi pole breaker would cost less than running dedicated neutrals? I'd say, since copper is expensive, and dedicated neutrals can add A LOT of copper depending on the job size that it would always be cheaper to use MWBC. Thoughts?
Any code retrictions on using handle ties in lieu of mutiple pole breaker? Thanks.
