Texas,
Just thought I'd jump in here with a comment.
I recently did work for an Italian couple that lived in the US and worked in Italy for some months out of the year. I didn't ask details, but was curious how they could do that. (?) But anyway, they were telling me that where they were from the only wiring method used or allowed was a conduit system.
When wiring had to be installed in their existing buildings they first had to channel out a path for the conduit which would then get covered over with concrete or stucco. They were amazed to see the wiring inside of their US apartment ceiling and walls that was seemingly without protection.
