AI think your description of 'grill' matches ours (USA) of 'broiler'.  The 
broiler is the top element in an oven, used on high setting.  It cooks fast, 
from the top.

We use 'grill' for cooking on a rack over heat (like an outdoor barbecue) and 
sometimes on a frying surface that has raised ridges to give the effect of 
cooking on a rack (commercial restaurant version).

What's a broiler?

I have a microwave oven, a gas cooker which consists of an oven, a grill (a 
wire mesh over a tray on which you put the food with the heat above) and 
hobs, and a few electric gadgets such as toasted sandwich maker and toaster, 
but have never heard of a broiler. Boiling yes, broiling no.
