It's difficult to tell from your description but have you considered
condui=
ts or some other form of cable route?

It obviously depends on the location of the spaces and what is between but
=
if at all possible installing two cable routes, one for power circuits and
=
another for signal cables would allow you to deal with future unknowns.

Houses don't tend to allow for changes to the wiring infrastructure
without=
redecoration, a pet hate of mine which I have tried to overcome in my new =
build with risers, cable tray and trunking. Even running cables through
the=
se routes takes me a while...

If you could run conduits, waste pipe (available in many sizes from
1=BC" u=
pto and beyond 4") with 45 degree swept bends to allow cables to be
pulled =
in the future...
