Prepare Access for Electrical Wiring

What happens here

As the video implies by showing holes in finished sheetrock walls and ceiling, the next step involves cutting access holes. Carefully use a drywall saw to cut rectangular or square sections of drywall along the predetermined path in the ceiling and walls. These openings, as seen in the video, are necessary to gain access for drilling through internal framing members (studs and joists) and for properly fishing the electrical wire. For transitions between floors or through thick framing, a long spade bit or auger bit attached to a powerful drill will be needed to bore through the wood.

Goal: Create openings in drywall and framing for wire routing
