Other than as part of a switch loop or a two wire conductor being used to feed a 240 appliance, when can a "White/Gray" be re-tasked as an ungrounded conductor.
I am editing an electrical book and the author has an image of a correctly run wires inside of EMT. The bottom shot shows a "Code violation" in that the EGC is run outside of the cable, but strapped to it. Within that image, the white conductor is shown with red bands at either end, which says to me it is re-tasked.
I flagged that as an additional violation and was told it is fine. Is it? Just as an FYI - this book is written against the 2011 edition of the NEC.
