Step 3 · Run Electrical Wire

Determine the most efficient path to run the electrical cable (e.g., Romex) from the power source (typically a junction box or switch) to each of the cut openings. This may involve running wire through wall cavities, attics, or crawl spaces. Secure the cable using appropriate clips or staples to the framing members, ensuring it is not pinched or damaged. Leave enough slack at each opening to make the electrical connections.
