brings back memories of the reno we did a year ago to a 1910 two story.

the k&t was still in use along with the pushbutton switches. I rewired
the entire house.

The following are pictures of a house built in the 1880's which
originally had a 30 amp 120 volt service, entering in the attic, with a
K&T fuse panel, also in the attic. The house had gas lamps in both walls
and ceilings, which were disconnected and changed to electric in a 1928
renovation/ addition. The 1928 work included making the attic into an
apartment. The K&T was from the original build, and all the other cable
types were subsequent, including the 1928 renovation, up until present.
The beverage containers could have been from the original construction,
or possibly the 28' renovation despite prohibition


That K&T job looks as sloppy as on my job. Was the rest of the house wired
like the attic, or was it neatly done? What state is the house in ?
