Or build over a knee wall as i did in my staging room shown below.  The knee wall encloses the sewer pipe and the wires run in a "J" trim along the edge.  The slots provide visual guide for 0-5-0 access.

The fasteners shown are Grip Rite construction screws.  I have used drywall screws but I have  been discouraged by having conventional drywall screw heads twist off in subsequent use.  Not real frequent,  but enough to stop using them.
