334.40 Boxes and Fittings.
(A) Boxes of Insulating Material. Nonmetallic outlet
boxes shall be permitted as provided by 314.3.
(B) Devices of Insulating Material. Switch, outlet, and
tap devices of insulating material shall be permitted to be
used without boxes in exposed cable wiring and for rewiring
in existing buildings where the cable is concealed and
fished. Openings in such devices shall form a close fit
around the outer covering of the cable, and the device shall
fully enclose the part of the cable from which any part of
the covering has been removed. Where connections to conductors
are by binding-screw terminals, there shall be available
as many terminals as conductors.
Question:
Does this mean that crimp splices could be used to patch together
two runs of Romex (where concealed or fished) ?
