If you're talking about metal studs, then for sure...

And it's not just Jersey. Did you also know that if the space above is an air handling space you can't use plastic "grommets"? We use 1/2" die cast chase nipples. Just drop them in the 7/8" hole you just made with a hole saw.

I don't think 1/2 inch nipples would be big enough. I like at least a 1" inch nipple. The bigger the nipple the better! I guess it's a personal preference.
