HI, I have a customer saying that we have a code violation regarding a shared neutral connection. We have two panels: one panelboard (for power distrubution) and one control cabinet. (see attached) Basically, my customer is only supplying 120/240VAC to our panelboard. From the panel board we ran wires to our control cabinet to power the devices on this cabinet. The issue is that we only ran one neutral wire from the panelboard to the control cabinet. We connected this neutral wire to a stack of terminal blocks that are jumpered together. We connected all the neutral connections on the control cabinet to these terminal blocks. Is this a code violation? Customer is telling us that we need to run individual neutral wires from the control cabinet to the panelboard. In other words instead of just one neutral wire we need 12 (we have 12 branch circuits). Is the customer correct? To me it seems that they way we have it wire now is OK, but I just wanted to get some feedback from the forum. Thanks
