I installed knob and tube in the Cleveland area in the early 1960s.
We started to add a green ground and that's what finally killed it.
the cost increased by a third because of the ground and local jurisdictions
also argued over the best way to splice the ground.
Some allowed soldering while other insisted on a crimped connection.


New install - legal and inspected - of K&T in the 1960's ?
OK if you say so ..
