l dont know that this NEC code applies in the way you are reading or understanding it, I do see where foreign components are restricted with in the space. We have systems with two or three outback radians above blueplanet batteries and have not seen an issue.

Since all of these components are required for the "system" to operate they are necessary. Jerry
