You mean trunking, it will be a cover to protect/hide drop cables running up a building?

If so then this is generally only fitted when a building is prewired or the local installers determine themed to protect the cabling. Very uncommon for this to be used these days. If its for protection then we would use galvanised trunking but if its purely for aesthetics then nothing is used.
