Romex sheath is not generally considered much protection. The intent of the code is that the tap wires that are not adequately protected by the feeder over current protective device have hardened physical protection. My read is that they need to be in conduit or some substantial enclosure.


Also at issue is the question: is the romex wire protected "by other means"? Judgement call.
