I have an electrical engineering question on shared conductors (such as the neutral on a 120/240 single phase service) (also, this is theoretical so assume all numbers are perfect and not rounded)
Lets say between the red hot and the neutral, there is a 120V 20A load, and between the black hot and neutral there is also a 120V 20A load. Is that neutral carrying a total of zero amps or fourty amps. I have thought it out and I can see how it could be either answer. Can someone help me with this?
