Thanks everyone. It is a single phase circuit. They ran a 10awg neutral conductor from the receptacle and from the breaker, but its is wire-nutted to a 12awg in the middle of the circuit, between two junction boxes. There are actually two 30 amp circuits wired like this. There are the two...

I also posted this in the light and electrical forum. Thanks again.

Hi everyone, At work, we had some electrical work done and I wanted to know if it is OK to use a smaller neutral conductor than the hot conductor. We have a 30 amp 120 volt circuit that is wired with a 10 awg hot and a 12 awg neutral. It is a dedicated circuit for a packaging line equipment...

Thanks guys. Umm, What is an AHJ?
