two circuits in same wall box

[afwagner]

is it ever premissable to run two circuits one 15 amp the other 20 amp in hte same wall box for lighting switches

Yes, it's even permitted to run them within the same cable. The only limitation would be if the adjacent devices were fed with a voltage above 300 volts between them. At that point the adjacent devices would require separation.

Seperation after 250 V

Recall'n as long as there's not more than 250 Volts total sum, then and if after that, a physical barrier is required.
