Services Provided By Harrisville Electricians

The old knob and tube wiring was a great system for the time as it was originally designed to carry modest currents. Today, however, the electrical demands for the average family are considerably greater. Fifty years ago there were no microwaves , air conditioners, toasters, or computers in the home. This puts an enormous strain on the old style of wiring.

Even if you have upgraded your service, the additional demand can overload this old wiring. Harrisville knob-and-tube wiring can be a fire hazard if the original fuses have been replaced with oversized fuses to handle larger electrical loads (an all-too-common practice). A good rule of thumb is that if you upgrade your panel (the electrical service into your house) you should upgrade your wiring. There should be no debate.

And did you know that many insurance companies are refusing to renew policies on old homes unless the OUTDATED KNOB AND TUBE wiring is replaced. There's nothing worse than finding out that you can't get basic protection for your home because your wiring is considered sub standard.

So don't wait for your old wiring to cause a problem. Have a professional check it and give you proper advice on its replacement.
