minus-squareargh_another_username@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up15·1 year agoPipes are installed before the mortar (I think that’s the name), sometimes carving bricks. Wires pass inside flexible tubes (literally translated to conductors). This has the advantage that, if the tube is wide enough, we can pass more wires.
