Is it still ok to run 2 #12 on top of each other down center of 2x4 stud and faster both under the same metal romex uninsulated staple? It stills seams easier than trying to squeeze them side by side with plastic insulated staples. That way it has to be perfect to get the required 1- 1/4 from edge of stud. Also have the metal staples with no insulation coating been banned since I see them a lot on clearence racks. I know when its over 2 wires you can use the stand off brackets but they are expensive. I had rather put 2 wires on each side of stud, buy drilling thru that gives 4 wires. What is the most popular method now ?
