Tom,
The rules in 725 are for conductors.
What about the wording in 725.55?
(A) General Cables and conductors of Class 2 and Class 3 circuits shall not be placed in any cable, cable tray, compartment, enclosure, manhole, outlet box, device box, raceway, or similar fitting with conductors of electric light, power, Class 1, non–power-limited fire alarm circuits, and medium power network-powered broadband communications circuits unless permitted by 725.55(B) through 725.55(J).
In general I think that the code has used the words cables and conductors somewhat interchangably. The section quoted above says that Article 725 conductors or cables cannot be run with power conductors. If they only mean power conductors that are not part of a cable then why did they put 725.55(J)(1) in the code?
