Double Neutrals

Two Neutral Wires Under One Terminal Lug

So why is more than one neutral wire occupying the same terminal lug in a service panel a problem?

Its because one of these wires may prevent the other wire from receiving adequate pressure from the set screw which can cause a loose electrical connection which has the potential to arc and cause a fire. So we recommend correction as required by a licensed electrician.
