You could use FMC, AC, MC, or possibly NM if this isn't in a commercial space.

Can't use romex in a drop ceiling. MC will do the trick. 334.12

Bob sure can, just not above grid in "other than" One and Two Family and Multi family Dwellings. Walker simply made a statement that one can't use NM above a grid...broad statement...I simply responded.:smile: Agreed?
