2 gang box question

Hello again, I have a blue (the color, not the emotion) 2 gang outlet box. Can I use the box for 2 different circuits if the 2 circuits are separated by a divider? Ex. On one side of the box a switch from a 15A circuit and the other side of the box a receptacle from a 20A circuit but a divider separating the 2 different circuits? As always, thanks in advance for the help. Roger

Yes the box can be used that way. A divider is not needed. Both grounds need to be spliced together.
