That sounds expensive.I think you would be fine if you could get UL out to the jobsite to "field list" it. seems like a decent idea. One less thing to stock on the van.
That's what I am asking. Would taping the romex together pass for this? I was told that it would, and it's a viable option for running 3-way switches without needing to buy 6 conductor romex.310.10 H is for conductors in parallel. You cannot parallel wires under 1/0 except in very rare circumstances
With NM cable you could do that but not for a parallel setup. What you are talking about, I believe, is running 2 wire Nm between 3 ways. You would not need to tape the wires together however if the feed is taped with the travellers then you would not have high emf's.That's what I am asking.

I see. I'm still confused on how to wire this 3-way. I thought the 3-way would have 3 parallels to go to each light but run between the switches.
Would we be able to get by 310.10(H)(1) and 300.3(B) with #12 romex if we taped the cables together the entire way?

If you want to get into the business of building your own cables, why not just use smurf tube and THHN conductors. It would have the added advantage of being a recognized wiring method?
