removing non structural wall

Miles,

It is up to your management co. Most will not require a permit for that. They will want a licensed electrician to do all the electrical

If in a coop, your Board may require you to file with the DOB with architectural drawings by a licensed architect to be reviewed by the building architect.

Even if the DOB does not require a filing permit.

And you will be lucky to get a specific reason as to why. The building architect, after reviewing your proposal, will just state that "Filing with the Department of Buildings is required."

Whenever a wall is involved, it seems some Boards and building architects will just require a permit regardless of the specific circumstances.
