Are you counting the correct conductors when applying ampacity adjustments?
This is one of the most misunderstood areas of the NEC—and a common source of mistakes on both electrical exams and real-world installations.
In this video, Paul from Electrical Code Academy breaks down how to apply conductor ampacity adjustments and corrections, including how to determine what qualifies as a current-carrying conductor under NEC 310.15.
Many electricians struggle with whether neutrals count—and the answer depends on the system. This video clears up that confusion so you can apply the rules correctly.
If you’ve ever second-guessed your ampacity calculations, this will make it clear.
