Can someone clarify for me NEC regulation on conductors in a raceway. The code states that you cannot have more than 3 current carrying conductors in a raceway unless you derate. Does a nuetral count as current carrying? I would think so.... If so then you could only have one circuit per conduit which makes no sense so obviously my interpretation is wrong. Exactly what are the facts on this subject. When I look at my Uglys book I find the conduit fill for 3/4 EMT THWN is 16 #12 THWN conductors. Is conduit fill and the above statement of no more than 3 current conductors in a raceway not the same subject matter? Just a little confused.
