Question 85: In a 3-phase, 4-wire wye system where more than 50% of the load is nonlinear (computers, VFDs, LED drivers), how is the neutral treated when counting current-carrying conductors for derating?

  • The neutral never counts as a current-carrying conductor
  • The neutral counts as a current-carrying conductor because it carries harmonic current
  • The neutral counts only if it is larger than the phase conductors
  • The neutral counts only in single-phase circuits
