I'm trying to remember what was allowed as far as how many branch circuits could land on the same neutral.
Here's the situation, have 4 separate existing #12 circuits 20amp on a single phase service ( assuming 2 on phase A and the other 2 on phase B) with a single #10 for neutral.
Something tells me that it used to be allowed but I question whether those circuits should have been on 15amp breakers not 20's. I'd say the original work was in the 60's
The job scope is to extend existing circuits to a new panel location not sure if I can do it without pulling in more neutrals to existing building recepts/lights?
