Rule 33.1
33.1 Neutral Conductors
Neutral conductors of supply circuits, other than in distribution
systems of 21,000 volts or less with common primary and secondary grounded
neutrals, shall be considered as carrying the same voltage as the other conductors
of the circuits. Insulators used to support neutral conductors shall
meet the requirements of Rule 55, based on the nominal voltage of the circuit,
but are not required to have the same insulating value as insulators actually
used on the phase conductors. Where a common neutral system is installed,
the neutral conductor may be considered as carrying the same voltage as any
of its related systems conductors, compliance with special practices and
construction requirements being necessary (see Rule 59).

Neutral conductors of supply circuits, other than in distribution
systems of 21,000 22,500 volts or less with common
