John,


Above ceiling and wires on grid? OMG! that is a whole other subject. How many times have we gone into a building and found open boxes, open splices and old temp lighting above grid ceilings. Never mind the wires laying on the ceiling, there where all these open boxes, splices and wiring that was live and not protected.

As an AHJ, I demand an Above ceiling inspection, and I try to make sure that all of the old temp wiring is removed and all the boxes are closed up.
