Reply to comment by FastToday in Any electricians that can fish a cable (internet?) line from the basement to a 2nd floor apartment, inside? by pcgamergirl

This is wrong. To have lines wall fished regardless of voltage you need to be licensed as it can interact with the high voltage system.

Cable/internet installers are able to drill through walls and floors but are not allowed to fish as they are not licensed. If the landlord does not want it run on the outside of the home it needs to be fished and that needs to be done by a licensed electrician.

To the extent this is true it's just going to mean interference on the data lines. It's not a danger and anybody should be able to pull these cables. The licensing is a protection racket.
