Answer:

Where cables and nonmetallic raceways are installed parallel to framing members, the nearest outside surface of the cable or raceway shall be at least 1 1/4 inches from the nearest edge of the framing member where nails or screws are likely to penetrate. This is according to the National Electrical Code (NEC).
