Default Passing cable via switch box

Hi,

For reasons of esthetics, I'd like to pass a 14gage Romex via a switch box
on a wall. This is a surface mounted box. This new cable is on separate ckt
breaker. Is this allowed by NEC code? Can't find that case anywhere.

Thanks...RichK



Yes this is allowable, as long as there is adequate room in the box.
You can make other circuit connections (or pass thru) any electrical
box.
