An electrical wire support assembly for routing wire along building interior structures includes a plurality of hangers that suspend electrical wiring from building interior structures. The hangers are fastened to the interior structures in a hanger row that follows a desired wiring path. Each hanger includes a slightly trapezoidal frame section integrally connected to a fastening flange. The hangers are shaped to support electrical wires strung through the frame sections and to allow elongated plastic cover sections to snap over the frame sections. The cover sections conceal and protect the electrical wiring. C-shaped couplers fit collar-like around the joined ends of the cover sections and hold the cover sections together end-to-end. Each fastening flange includes fastener holes for receiving fasteners such as nails or screws. Side walls of each hanger frame section include an integrally outwardly extending horizontal ridge. Side walls of each cover section each include a beveled upper edge and a horizontal groove. The beveled edges help initiate outward splaying of the cover side walls as the covers are being pushed into position over the hanger frame sections. The grooves are shaped and positioned to allow the hanger frame section ridges to snap into the grooves, securing the cover sections to the hanger frame sections.
