I don't think that's correct -- do you have a Code cite for it? I see where
the Code prohibits other *outlets* on those circuits (e.g. in other rooms),
but I don't see a prohibition against lighting.
PMFJI, but please see 2005 NEC 210.23(A)
Quote:
(A) 15- and 20-Ampere Branch Circuits. A 15- or 20-ampere branch circuit
shall be permitted to supply lighting units or other utilization
equipment, or a combination of both, and shall comply with 210.23(A)(1)
and (A)(2).
Exception: The small appliance branch circuits, laundry branch circuits,
and bathroom branch circuits required in a dwelling unit(s) by 210.11(C)
(1), (C)(2), and (C)(3) shall supply only the receptacle outlets
specified in that section.
