While were at it, can I staple the romex to the bottom of the joists in my basement (finished, drop ceiling) or do I need to drill through each one? For the record, the PO has romex all over the ceiling, just laying on the tiles...
Thanks!

Check what's required from your local building code. Everyone use a different code, some use the International Building Code, some use the B.O.C.A. code and some make up their own code such as CHICAGO. You don't want to install it and have to redo it if you have a house inspection.
