Maximum Raceway Length? Except for elevators, the NEC does not limit the length of a raceway.
Maximum Raceway Length? Except for elevators, the NEC does not limit the length of a raceway. For example, liquidtight flexible nonmetallic conduit is NOT limited to six feet in any run length [see 356.10(5)].

What does the 40C on a circuit breaker mean? Per industry standards, breakers are calibrated to perform at an ambient temperature of 40 °C.

breakers are calibrated to
perform at an ambient
temperature of 40 °C.
Thermal-magnetic breakers
are temperature sensitive,
and at temperatures above
40 °C will carry less current
than their continuous current high temperature
condition promotes nuisance
tripping and can create
unacceptable temperature
conditions inside the breaker
and at the terminals. To
prevent these issues, the
ambient temperature load
derating values presented in
the technical data section
must be followed. [Eaton Catalog]

Service: A neutral conductor must be run to the service disconnecting means and it must be bonded to the metal service disconnect enclosure (main bonding jumper) in accordance with 250.24(C) and 250.142(A).
Feeder: A neutral-to-ground bond is not permitted at a 'sub-panel' at a building supplied by a feeder, see 250.24(B), 250.32(B), and 250.142(B).

Electrical equipment must be installed in a professional and skillful manner. This rule and its application is ultimately a judgment call made by the authority having jurisdiction. I'm sure we are going to see lots of heated discussion on the application of this rule.
