WARNING - from past experience you can set your house on fire with open wire
line. Be very careful! The high voltage on the lines can arc over to any
metal object and start a fire. I would not recommend putting the feeders
above a dropped ceiling. Keep them where you can see them and keep them
clear of everything. Open wire feeder are great. I have used them for years
with great results but please be careful.
