Cable on running board question
Running NM on a running board nailed to the bottom of the floor joists [unfinished basement] are strip guards needed or just a 1x3 to staple the 14/2
Thank you

With a good drill bit 16 holes only takes a few minutes. Biggest issue is sawdust - I spend more time vacuuming that drilling the holes.
FYI - I started using an impact driver and even with a simple spade bit it only takes a few seconds to go through a 2" joist.

The cable runs in the general area where the furnace is, so no plans to finish the ceiling there
Another reason to consider the running board is not wanting to run electrical cables through cold air returns
Thank you for all replies
