Hey all!Just bought a 100 year old house. In the middle of remodelling it, installing insulation, and swapping plaster for drywall etc etc.Inspector confirmed every switch, outlet and other electrical has had its K&T wiring replaced with modern romex. I just dropped a ceiling fan to put in a new one and it’s KT wiring.I’ve never worked it before, have access to a friend who’s an electrician.He says remove it since it’s potentially a fire hazard.It’s on the first floor, in a room directly above the breaker panel.My thought is to run an entire new line and dedicate the breaker.It also seems to be tied into the panel with electrical outlets. When I kill the fan, two of the outlets don’t work either.My first thought is get an electrician in and figure out wtf is going on. via /r/DIY http://ift.tt/2iw6giW
