ᐅ Where to place the cables in the attic space

Hello everyone,

We are currently working on the interior finishing of our new build.
I have a question that has been on my mind for a while.

For time reasons, I would like to start insulating our roof structure as soon as possible. Since a friend is doing the electrical work but only has occasional availability, I wonder if I can install the insulation and vapor barrier now, or if the cables and other electrical components need to be installed first?

If not, how are these cables typically installed? I want to avoid damaging the vapor barrier. The attic will not be used as living space but only as storage, where lighting and two sockets are needed.

I also recommend using empty conduit, such as flexible plastic tubing. It works great.
