Please provide us with a specific reference that can be found in the 2002 NEC for your definition.

You are correct, the Article 800 definition is for that article only, see 90.3

We really have to be careful when posting information here, because there are many who may rely on this information, even though it is not an official interpretation.

I would like to see the people who post messages here add the edition of the National Electrical Code that they are using.

I did not mean to assert that mine was an NEC definition but that does not mean that the one I offered is without merit. I was drawing from the multiple times that the NEC uses the phrase one or more conductors that is obviously based on whether that particular cable type is available in a single conductor version. If you have an authoritative description that contradicts this it would be useful if you would share it.
