I have not used a shared neutral in years, most specs prohibit it
No more SHARED Neutrals on Emergency cirucuits
It appears they finally outlawed shared neutrals for emergency circuits in the 2014 NEC. 700.19 states
It also appears they are slowly trying to require some type of emergency lighting in panels rooms, at least for the main disconnecting means. They added to 700.16

Then you better make sure the building service and feeders don't contain a shared neutral either.
Copper industry wins again.Then you better make sure the building service and feeders don't contain a shared neutral either.
Just in my one man poll, in 43 years I cannot think of one case were a MWBC has been an issue in an EM. system.
Not saying it doesn't happen, just my experience.
The first quote will sell a lot more white insulated conductors. The second quote makes sense.It appears they finally outlawed shared neutrals for emergency circuits in the 2014 NEC. 700.19 states

I am nuts and I don't give a s**t what YOU think, I KNOW it makes a difference in how things work on certain loads.
And I knew you and your boyfriend:
..were gonna troll along and follow up on this.Then you better make sure the building service and feeders don't contain a shared neutral either.
Hook, line and sinker dudes. :whistling2::laughing:
Besides, it appears that I am not the only one who feels that way:
I don't know what effect MWBC's would have in EM circuits, but someone somewhere found an issue with it.It appears they finally outlawed shared neutrals for emergency circuits in the 2014 NEC. 700.19 states

And with some A/V and professional dimming gear, manufacturer's instructions do too.
Now Porky and PD, are you gonna man up and call brother, 360max, Bbsound and Awg-Dawg nuts too?
:laughing:
That is fine, stay wrong.:thumbup:
There is nothing in the electrical panel that changes physics and every time you claim there is an angel looses its wings.:jester:
I will call anyone nuts that claims moving the point that a neutral becomes common up stream changes how electricity behaves. (This assumes proper installation, no open connections etc)And I knew you and your boyfriend:

I know you will claim it screwed up a system you did but there was something else that changed not just the elimination of the MWBC
Or does science work different for you?:laughing:
Where are you working that MWBC's are prohibited?? I thought you were a union clown? What kind of commercial jobs do you do that don't take advantage of typical 3-phase wiring??
If you run a pipe and 3 circuits, you run 3 neutrals in there?
You only use 2-wire MC?? You don't take advance of 3 or 4-wire when you need multiple circuits ran to the same place?? :blink:
Full boats and no handle ties are how I roll in our plants. Stuff works greatHackWork said:Where are you working that MWBC's are prohibited?? I thought you were a union clown?
