Where are your links that show a hazard of K&T wiring in contact with
insulation? The Illinois investigation couldn't find a hazard but you
must have better information than Illinois had.

Where are your links that show the fire hazard of K&T wiring? The
insurance company in Maine couldn't produce evidence of a hazard, but
you must have better information than the insurance company had.

I eagerly await your reply.

do tell? if the originally werent concerned with overheating why run
wires thru tubes?

They ran it on insulators, exposed. Tubes and loom were used where it went
through wood or needed protection. I'm sure many people who couldn't get
insurance had K&T that was screwed with over the years and deemed unsafe.
That doesn't mean that ALL K&T is in poor condition... Except in your mind




have you read the pastes i posted from others who couldnt get
insurance?
