Scott,

I could easilly see where you were going with this.
Sounds like you have been involved with Vendor coordinated project surveys too! [Linked Image] That's where I heard a few really good ones about power circuits, from the IT rep's of the Vendors.

It would take Eons to explain the maximum derated capacity of 45% to them, if the case was to run 7 - full boats [4 wire circuits].

The first thing they would say is:
"Derated Ampacity? What Planet are YOU from?"

Then the impossible task of explaining that there are 28 load [current] carrying conductors and only one non-load carrying conductor [the Equipment Ground Bonding Conductor], which will always bring up the 'ol:
"But the ""Neutral"" doesn't carry any load" debate.

I would like to hunt the joker down that started this viscious rumor and send that clown back to his / her planet of origin - or at least somewhere in deep space!

Never really installed too much of that Panduit stuff. Cable guys love it, and I guess for Voice and Data cabling it would be better than fishing down an Insulated wall [or a wall with Asbestos Impregnated Plaster / Gypsum board].

Scott SET.
