Parallel connection of conductors
Parallel connection of conductors
(OP)
Can anybody explain why NEC allows to parallel conductors larger than AWG 1/0 (aside from all exceptions to this rule)? Why this specific size 1/0 is a magic number?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: Parallel connection of conductors
And there is generally little need to parallel the smaller sizes if the system is properly designed.
#1/0 AWG is not a magic number, but they had to draw the line somewhere.
