That wiring is likely a 100 years old, how many things do YOU own that
last that long? New wiring gets you all grounded outlets with GFCIs
and AFCIs, adding greatly to safety and resale value.


Its likely you cant sell your home because homeowners doesnt want K&T
and neither do mortage companies......


You have 2 issues, a op[en neutral which MUST be fixed IMMEDIATELY!
and K&T more of a long term issue........- Hide quoted text -

MOST K&T is near a 100 years old today.

I didnt read his post closely but the issues still remain


And there's the rub -- reaction w/o reading and "issues" raised that
don't know exist...
