I like to know if there is a note in the Nec that said:
"A common neutral is a single neutral conductor used as neutral for more than set of feeder conductors. It must have current-carrying capacity equal in the sum of hte neutral of the neutral conductor capacities if an individual neutral conductor were used with each feeder set. A common Neutral may be used only with feeders. It may never be used with branch circuits. A single neutral of a multiwire branch circuit is not a common neutral, it is a neutral of only a single circuit even though the circuit may consist of 3 or 4 wires. A feeder common neutral is used with more than one feeder circuit"
My question is if this is true, that means that in a 3 phase system where you have a 42 circuit panel with 42 single breaker for various branch circuits than you need 42 neutral conductor as well??
I usually use a common neutral for the 3 circuit making sure that they are in different phase meaning one of each A, B, C phase an never have 2 in a common neutral from the same phase.
I will appreciated your comments and help thanks
