I'm installing new electrical work for my house, and I have a question regarding the new CAFI's. My house is 37 years old and has the various neutrals in electrical boxes tied together. In some locations in the house, these neutrals are between different electrical circuit breakers. Obviously sharing neutrals between to different circuit breakers won't work with CAFI's which look at the specific individual current outputs from each protection device. OK, so my question is, do I and can I within NEC code treat each circuit as a "dedicated" neutral to the specific device, and NOT tie them together in the electrical box? I don't see an easy solution to this other than treat every CAFI as one protection device, serving only one specific circuit at a time??? Thanks for any suggestions!!!
