So, found a link to a mike holt article in another thread and found something interesting referenced in the '02 code. i just found it in the '05 code and it is 408.41 which says:
"Each grounded conductor shall terminate within the panelboard in an individual terminal that is not also used for another conductor.
exception: Grounded conductors of circuits with parallel conductors shall be permitted to terminate in a single terminal if the terminal is identified for connection of more than one conductor."
i understand what it means, i just didn't know that i couldn't double-up my neutrals. my question is, in the exception, what are they considering parallel conductors? neutrals off circuits in the same phase? or just the grounding conductor of a 3-wire or 4-wire circuit?
