Application(residential)-I have a 3gang box which includes 2 switches for lighting circuits & 1 switch for a low voltage fire place ignitor. My understanding is i need a seperation barrier between the various voltages. Im unable to find the barrier . Is there a alternate application that meets code ? I would like to keep all 3 devices grouped in same 3gang box HELP ME PLEASE!
low&high voltage in same enclosure

Check page 13 for a divider. You might want to check for the availability before you select you box.
IMO, page 4 has a better option - the Low Voltage Add-On Bracket - you can use it with any box, and no divider is necessary.

I agree the add-on LV box is a better option, because
it makes the wires easier to route.
You could also use a 3-gang Arlington one-box with
a voltage divider.

but I like the add-on idea better.

I always use the low voltage add on.
