Question, small project replacing fluorescent troffer fixtures with led frame type fixture(led driver is separate from the fixture itself and lcass 2) and using a 0-10v dimmer. the current control for the fixtures are a 120v in wall occupancy sensor switch. is there a way, per the NEC, to run the line voltage in the same conduit as the 0-10v control wires? i read 725.136 and still a little fuzzy on if this type of scenario is possible using the 0-10v control wires having the same voltage and insulation rating as the power circuit. thank you in advance for you help.

Do the 0-10V conductors end up on the same device as the line volts switch conductors? I think you have little choice if so but to reclassify as class 1 circuit, which can be run in same raceway/cable as associated power conductors. When doing so must also use conductors with insulation voltage rating that is the same or higher than the power circuit rating it runs with.
