29 Ιουλ 2019 · My recent finding is a 12/3 cable that carries two circuits from my electrical panel that branches off to two different chains of receptacles. To clarify, in my panel the red and black wires go to seperate 20A breakers, white to the neutral bar.
Someone was telling me they ran a 12/3 in a home to run 2 circuits. Is this okay to do? 2 different circuits sharing a neutral. Would you just take it to a junction box then branch both circuits out from there?
In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the critical decision of when to use 12/2 vs. 12/3 wire. These two seemingly similar options have distinct applications that can significantly impact the performance and safety of your electrical circuits.
14 Νοε 2003 · The answer to your question is yes, you can do this. This is called a multiwire circuit. To make this work with a single neutral, the two hot wires must come from different legs of the circuit. The current on the neutral will be the difference between the current on each leg.
28 Απρ 2007 · He has mentioned that in order to save on wire, I can use 12/3 Romex to feed 2 circuits - one circuit on black and one on red - sharing the white common. This sounds reasonable and I assume this is common practice.
Renovating an old house and electrician didn’t want to run 2 sets of 12-2 wire from the panel to the kitchen. He instead ran a 12-3 wire to a junction box and then 2 seperate 12-2 wires to the kitchen. Circuits protected by 2 20A breakers. Is this legal?
