Existing Wooden structure renovation, It is a club house and is considered public assembly. Can MN and MNS cable be used for the branch Circuitry?
Clarification of terminology used would help some as well. I assume you mean NM cable and not MN. Public assembly - are you trying to say place of assembly or just that the general public is welcome here. A "place of assembly" is descriped in 518.1. The main thing there is occupancy of 100 or more persons. If it is a place of assembly NM cable is not allowed in such places.Existing Wooden structure renovation, It is a club house and is considered public assembly.

How does that work out with an old building that is not rated construction but would be required to be rated if it were being built today, like say a 100 year old church? Gone through a few of those in my time and replaced old wiring - usually NM cable or even knob and tube with either metal raceways, MC cable or a little of both.518.4(B) allows it in nonrated construction
