I see that there are rulings about not including roof area which is covered in PV or mechanical equipment.
Q: does this go as far as determining that the space between panels ( allowing for reasonableness here) or chillers in an external plant enclosure should be included in the roof area or is it sufficient that a PV array area or external plant enclosure should be excluded ?

I would probably exclude the area in question. However, you've entered into a gray area where there is some judgement (relying on reasonableness, as you say). I would try to anticipate how a reviewer would see it.
