For retro fitting on wooden floors in buildings with raised piers, the
trick I use is to drive a 6"+ nail through Very close to the skirting
board below where you want the outlet. This allows you to easily spot
exactly where you need to drill up through the frame to get the
correct stud cavity. Just check for nail heads in the bottom, so you
know you are not drilling into the bottom of a stud and that you are
accessing the correct cavity.
The 6" nail comes out okay (block of wood to protect floor, etc) and
usually the wood swells overtime to close the nail hole, or the carpet
rolls back down.
