If the correction factor for conduit fill and continuous load exists, do you have to correct them both? Does the NEC make provisions so you dont have correct twice?
The two correction factors are both aimed at reducing heat around conductors so it seems only the most stringent of the two would apply. How do you handle this instance.
My example is parking lot lighting. I have voltage drop, conductor deration for more than 3 current carrying conductors and continuos load deration.
Happy new year. Hope you all had a good Christmas.
