I think you would find it rathe difficult to drive a nail through a metal
conduit.

Metal conduit these days is rather thin and weedy - quite easy to pierce
with a nail - especially when nicely supported in plaster. (in much the
same way as it is easy to nail through a pipe). With the more commonly
used plastic conduit, you probably would not even notice it was there.

It would not be neccessary on a lathe and plaster wall as the cable could
be suspended in the gap between the sides.

Also depricated, and a bit trickey when you need to cross the studs.


Then locte the studs and drill a hole through them!

Tricky thing to do once the wall is built.
