Are staples required where cables run through holes in framing?

No, staples are not required where cables are run horizontally through holes in framing members. When the cable changes direction from horizontal to vertical runs from the last hole a staple is required, no greater distance that 16 inches from the hole.

Can you run electrical wire's in load bearing wall?

Yes, you can run electrical wires in a load bearing wall.


Do you need a grommet to protect electrical wiring run through a hole cut in a metal stud?

Ideally yes. Any potential for the cabling to move against the edges of the hole will cause shorting out and potential fire hazard as well as electrocution. <<>> The electrical code does not allow home cable (loomex) to be used in non combustible buildings. If metal studs are used throughout a commercial building then BX has to be used. There are grommets that make pulling the BX through the metal studs much more easier. To save labour on the job the grommets are highly recommended. They can be installed as the holes in the studs are punched out.

Where low-voltage fire alarm system cables penetrate a fire-resistance-rated wall?

What is the difference between saying do not pull on those cables and saying do not pull those cables?

In computer networking, "pulling cables" refers to running cables from one point to another (generally through a wall or crawl space, where you feed one end through, then go to the other side and pull them the rest of the way), so "Do not pull those cables" means to not run the specified cables. Often times, pulled cables are left with slack in them so that if components (computers, routers, etc.) need to be moved, you can simply pull ON the cable to gather slack. If, however, the cables have been pulled without slack, then those wires should not be pulled on

What are wall frames?

Wall framing is the process of putting together construction materials to hold up and give shape to a wall. Framing for a plain wall consists of the top and bottom plates that run horizontally along the entire length of the wall and the studs running vertically from the bottom plate to the top, creating a framework. The shorter jack and jamb studs are used where there are openings like windows and doors. Other components like the lintel, noggings, and bracing provide additional strength to the structure.
