I know that there's a code somewhere in the NEC stating that if two circuits are present on the same yoke (wiring device), they must be on a two-pole breaker to turn them on/off simultaneously (such as in the case of a MWBC). I've seen a lot of people's kitchens where they have a double-stack switch with the top for the light over the sink, and the bottom for the disposal. They are, of course, on separate 15-amp circuits. Would this now be a violation to wire a double-stack switch that way, and that the NEC would require them to be two separate switches?
