Knob And Tube Rewire - Tracing Circuit Wires - Electrical - DIY ...

I have work plenty tube et knobs before so I know what it will result so therefore if you going to upgrade to modern circuits you will have to do it backward what you will oringally do.,

I know you may be little suprised why on this one let me tell you as one poster gave you a good pointer there.

Let me add this in the mix the way the T&K is laided out if you did cut the wrong conductor you may end up shut half or most of the house out of commison until you fix that one so therefore start with your couple homeruns to the point where you can have few conductors meet one junction box for new one once you get that room done ( in attic is the most easiest way to trace it ) and work it way back to the source.

The other thing I will warn you with older T&K more than half of the time you may run into switched netural not the hot side so be extra aware with that and oddball three way switch set if you do just set it aside until you double check the luminaire socket poliatry ( Californie three way is about the most crazy three way'er you will see if have it there )

The other thing with old tube et knob when you install the new breaker before you take the old fuse apart please take either bleu or red or other tape and mark every conductor which it landed at the fuse so the reason why I mention due you have to keep them in correct " leg " colour format if you did not and have californie three way expect the light bulb to blow up quick ( reason due if you have wrong leg hook up will end up 240 volts at the luminaire socket )

Merci,
Marc
