Is there any reason NM cable can NOT be used in a soffit with can lights in a hotel? Code article? TIA
Is it within at least a 15 minute finish rating?I believe it is being treated as 334.10 (3) and not (1) or (2). We are running NM throughout the entire building and is 99% wood struture with very little steel structural. I believe I am good in the soffit.

As mentioned if in an assembly area then definitely no.
Probably going to be an old building for that to come into play.If the building is nonrated construction NM cable is allowed in places of assembly. See 518.4(B)

I guess I can see that.If the building has sprinklers it could be allowed non- fire rated construction happens a lot

And have sprinklers, right?Many hotels are built using Type V non-rated construction.
