A wire engaging clip body is formed on a side wall of the stud engaging clip and includes a plurality of resilient clips which may be selectively dimensioned to secure flat ROMEX type cables, round cables, or individual wires. Preferably, each wire engaging clip body includes a variety of differently dimensioned individual clip elements to allow convenient securement of various different conventional forms of wiring. The stud engaging clip may be stapled to the conventional 2".times.4" or 2".times.6" stud by a conventional manual or rechargeable staple gun to enhance securement. After the wiring is installed utilizing a plurality of the stud engaging clips, drywall is conventionally nailed to the studs, over the clips. According to a second embodiment of the invention, the stud engaging clip may include a resilient clip member dimensioned for cooperation with a plurality of separate wiring system attachments. The wiring system attachments include a variety of different wire engaging clip members for use with various different conventional wire forms and a variety of different electrical boxes. According to other embodiments of the invention, the stud engaging member may rely solely upon staples or nails for securement to the stud, thus omitting the resilient stud engaging clip.
