Alan using your listing number we end up at this UL page
Nonmetallic Sheathed Cable Interconnectors Which says in part.
This forms a contained product for component interconnections for use in exposed or concealed locations in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA-70, Article 545, Manufactured Buildings; Article 550, Mobile Homes; Article 551, Recreational Vehicles And Recreational Vehicle Parks, and for tap devices in accordance with Article 336, Nonmetallic-Sheathed Cable: Types NM, NMC, and NMS.
This page was written based on the 1999 NEC and is referring to the tap devices listed in 336-21
1999 NEC
336-21. Devices of Insulating Material
Switch, outlet, and tap devices of insulating material shall be permitted to be used without boxes in exposed cable wiring and for rewiring in existing buildings where the cable is concealed and fished. Openings in such devices shall form a close fit around the outer covering of the cable and the device shall fully enclose the part of the cable from which any part of the covering has been removed.
Where connections to conductors are by binding-screw terminals, there shall be available as many terminals as conductors.
If you do not think those Molex connectors you called out are what 1999 336-21 or 2002 334.40(B) are referring to what tap device do you think the NEC
is referring to?
I am not a fan of these and have not used them, but I am confident they can be used in 'normal' dwellings.
