what is a ceiling?

[trevw]

Hi,

might sound like an odd question in my single storey kitchen extension the ceiling follows the roofline so there are sloping sections at the front and sides, I am assuming these are treated as ceilings as far as concealed wiring is concerned?

However there is also a vertical section of 'ceiling' where the height changes from the high ceiling in the extension to the lower height in the existing house. (this is part of the upstairs outer wall supported by a pair of steels). Can I consider this to be ceiling as well?

And finally - all the regs seem to be about the correct places/zones to put wires in walls, are there any rules for ceilings (particularly in the above situations) or is it okay to just run the wires anywhere as long as it is well supported/neat etc.

thanks for any help

If it's above your head, is not the sky or open beams, then it can be considered a cieling...
