I assume you are talking about a feeder panel here. If it is/were a service panel, the minimum size is per 250.66, and a neutral is required to be pulled to the service disconnecting means.

That doesn't tell us whether the panel is fed by service or feeder conductors, which minimum neutral conductor sizing is dependent upon.

That is correct as we have already mentioned 3 or 4 times already in this thread that the service gets the GEC and the feeder gets the egc.

Np has not confirmed which and your post gave only a feeder panel conclusion. Until confirmed as one or the other, I feel both service and feeder panel conclusions need to be addressed in any response.

I assume, correctly I hope, that you're not in Chicago? For services here, up to 400 amps, no down sizing of neutral in service is allowed.
