Proper Way to Stapple Wire?

778 Views 1 Reply 2 Participants Last post by  electures
I just installed this switch box....



The box is on the left side....but ALL of the wires are going to be coming down the stud on the right.

I think I already know the answer.....I guess I can' just 'jump' from that right stud into the box?

In other words, I'll have to cross over to the stud on the left and go down the stud? Last stapple within 8" of the box?

Cross over and staple within 12" of the box. Or use stackers.
