Quite possibly not. If high temperature parts will be exposed in the ceiling you must meet the requirements of ALL qualifying paragraphs/notes in clause 4.5.2.3 involving preparation for the likely subsequent installation of insulation, including loose fill! And, adequate protective measures are required where there is a likelihood of leaves, vermin debris, etc collecting on or around the luminaire. Besides, the huge default clearances required to adjacent timber beams & insulation bring your clients severe downlight positioning limitations.
