A #12 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 20 amps. A #12 aluminium conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 15 amps. These conductors ratings only applies to three conductors in a raceway. To apply the derate to the conductor requires the size of the raceway. From 7 to 24 conductors in a raceway, both aluminium and copper conductor's ratings have to be reduced by .70, so 15 amps x .7 = 10.5 amps and 20 amps x .7 = 14 amps respectively.
Yes, there will be a de-rate applied to this type of installation. In the electrical code book the amperage rating of conductors is for allowable ampacities for not more than three copperconductors in raceway or cable. This is based on an ambient temperature of 30 degrees C. If the ambient temperature of the conductors where the raceway is installed is over 30 degrees C the conductor amperages have to be reduced. Where the number of conductors are from 4 to 6 conductors in a raceway, the conductors amperage has to be reduced by .8
No. The individual pieces are not classed as a continuous raceway. A ground wire has to be installed from the source voltage to the load to comply with the electrical code rules.
It depends on the wiring, the current load in the wiring , and the distance. The NEC Code book has the charts for this.And the size of the conduit.

Not usually. The emergency light wiring is using DC voltages and should not be mixed with AC wiring. In some installations the raceway will have barriers. Separation of DC, instrumentation and power cables is allowed if the raceway has barriers installed, and are used for these separate types of wiring.

Although this method of identifying a grounded circuit conductor (may be a neutral) is acceptable for sizes larger than 6 AWG conductors in a raceway, it is not acceptable for multiwire cables.For sizes larger than 6 AWG installed in a raceway, this is what Item 3 of 200.6(B) allows: "At the time of installation, by a distinctive white or gray marking at its terminations. This marking shall encircle the conductor or insulation."This requirement appears in part (E) of 200.6: "Grounded Conductors of Multiwire Cables. The insulated grounded conductors of a multiconductor cable shall be identified by a continuous white or gray outer finish or by three continuous white stripes on other than green insulation along its entire length.Multiconductor flat cable 4 AWG or larger shall be permitted to employ an external ridge on the grounded conductor.

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.CEC states that a #3 bare copper conductor is a common grounding conductor size for a 200 amp service panel and it is the minium size for service raceway and service equipment of 400 amps.
