Is it possible to enclosure in the same box IGNITION AND SIGNAL????
(OP)
Dear Sirs!
I know that when you have an electrical enclosure (hoffmann, adalet, etc) you can not put in the same box an ignition device and a signal device together. My target application is the following:
-I want to put an ignition transformer and a flame relay in the same box (not each box for each equipment). I want to know if exists a code, norm or other regulation that says to me not to do that.
Thank you very much for your help.

YOU ARE RIGHT! I HAVE FOUND THAT TOO BUT IS THERE A CODE OR A STANDARD WHERE IT SAYS THAT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PUT IN THE SAME ENCLOSURE A SIGNAL DEVICE (FLAME AMPLIFIER) AND THE IGNITION DEVICE (IGNITION TRANSFORMER).
THANKS FOR ANSWERING!

There's a furnace in our office building that has everything in one box. UL listed. I can think of no reason not to.

Properly separated and in "one box" for a single function, there is no other way to do the job. A ignition source though, is a rapid "spurt" of noise that you may see at either stop or start in your signal and control readings.

Apart from common practice on wiring/device segregation, I recall that the local fire protection codes are involved, relating to potential combustible sources and the electrical enclosures.
If you are referring to a prefabricated assembly then testing agencies maybe involved to establish it's electrical classification and safety
