The invention relates to a method with which cabling can be arranged invisibly in an indoor space in rapid and simple manner. This method comprises the steps of placing a non-load-bearing partition wall which has a cavity and which is provided on its underside with a recess which extends over the whole length thereof and which is at least partially open on its upper side and communicates with the cavity, and placing the laid cabling laterally into the recess. The method further comprises of arranging at least one take-off point in the partition wall, leading a take-off cable from the take-off point through the cavity in the partition wall to the recess, and connecting the take-off cable to the cabling in the recess. In the case of walls provided with studs or other connecting elements, these can, at the position of the recess, be replaced by or strengthened with strengthening elements leaving the recess at least partially clear. Different embodiments of these strengthening elements can be applied. The invention further relates to a system with which this method can be performed, and to different components of the system.

1. A method for invisibly arranging cabling in an indoor space, comprising of: placing at least one partition wall which has a substantially hollow interior and is provided on or close to its underside with a recess which extends substantially over the whole length thereof and which is at least partially open on its upper side and communicates with the substantially hollow interior, wherein the at least one partition wall comprises at least one strengthening element that either replaces or reinforces a stud within the at least one partition wall at the position of the recess leaving the recess at least partially clear and said strengthening element extends substantially over the whole depth of the recess,placing the cabling laterally into the recess,arranging at least one socket in the partition wall above the recess, such that said at least one socket is in communication with the substantially hollow interior,leading a take-off cable from the socket through the substantially hollow interior to the recess, andconnecting the take-off cable to the cabling in the recess. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising supporting and/or fixing cabling in the recess at a distance above a floor of the indoor space. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the cabling is supported and/or fixed at regular intervals in the recess. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the wall is assembled from studs with paneling on either side between which the substantially hollow interior is formed, and each stud is replaced or strengthened, at the position of the recess, by one of the respective strengthening elements. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the cabling is supported or fixed at one of the respective strengthening elements. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the wall is constructed from a number of mutually connected panels, and one of the respective strengthening elements is arranged at the position of each connection between adjoining panels. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the recess is covered after arranging of the cabling therein. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein one or more skirting elements are placed in front of the recess. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein a door opening is incorporated in the partition wall and an additional recess connected to the recess in the wall is formed in the floor of the indoor space at the door opening. 10. A system for invisibly arranging cabling in an indoor space, comprising at least one partition wall which has a height and a substantially hollow interior and is provided at or close to its underside with a recess which extends substantially along the whole length thereof and which is at least partially open on its upper side and communicates with the substantially hollow interior, wherein at least one socket communicating with the substantially hollow interior is arranged in the partition wall above the recess,a take-off cable is connected from the socket through the substantially hollow interior to the recess, andthe take-off cable is connected to cabling in the recess,wherein the at least one partition wall comprises a strengthening element that either replaces or reinforces a stud within the at least one partition wall at the position of the recess leaving the recess at least partially clear and said strengthening element extends substantially over the whole depth of the recess. 11. The system of claim 10, further comprising support and/or fixation means arranged in the recess at a distance above a floor of the space for the purpose of supporting and/or fixing at least a part of the cabling. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the support and/or fixation means are arranged at regular intervals in the recess. 13. The system of claim 11, wherein the support and/or fixation means is connected to the strengthening element or integrated therein. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the support and/or fixation means comprise in each case at least one hook protruding from the strengthening element into the recess. 15. The system of claim 10, wherein the strengthening element is provided with a secondary recess. 16. The system of claim 15, wherein the stud has a hollow section and the strengthening element is inserted on the underside into the hollow stud. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the strengthening element is a profiled plastic part. 18. The system of claim 15, further comprising a plurality of studs and strengthening elements, each having a U-shaped or C-shaped section and are connected to each other in opposing directions, thus forming a closed section in which the secondary recess is formed. 19. The system of claim 10, wherein the wall is constructed from a number of mutually connected panels, and one of the respective strengthening elements is arranged at the position of each connection between adjoining panels. 20. The system of claim 19, wherein the strengthening element is provided with a secondary recess. 21. The system of claim 10, wherein the wall is placed on the floor of the space and one or more profiles are fixed to the floor at the position of the wall, in or against which profiles the underside of the wall is placed and wherein each strengthening element is placed fittingly in the profile and/or connected thereto. 22. The system of claim 10, further comprising covering means for covering the recess. 23. The system of claim 22, wherein the covering means comprise one or more skirting elements. 24. The system of claim 23, wherein each strengthening element has skirt fixing means for fixing the skirting elements. 25. The system of claim 23, further comprising height adjusting means for height adjustment of the skirting elements. 26. The system of claim 10, wherein a door opening is incorporated in the partition wall, and an additional recess connected to the recess in the wall is formed in the floor of the space at the position of the door opening. 27. The system of claim 26, wherein a transition element is arranged between the recess in the wall and the recess in the floor. 28. The system of claim 27, wherein the transition element has a first channel part fitting in the recess in the wall and open to the top, a second channel part fitting in the recess in the floor and open to the bottom, and an inclining transition part arranged therebetween.
