If the insulation on your wire is good, then there isn't anything to worry about. The ribs are a pain in the ass. I got a super long drill bit extension to drill through them. The boys over at your local Home Depot or Ace Hardware could answer your question about the electric situation. My solution for what you are wanting to do was wire them all individually and use a surge protector to switch them all on/ off at the same time. If your torch placement is going to be perminent then your idea is the best. You never know when you are going to want to move them around. Good luck Pop.
