Residential Electrical Services by Our Electrician Pros for Upgrading Knob and Tube Wiring: Hendersonville, NC

Knob and tube wiring systems are considered outdated and are no longer permitted for major electrical installations and renovations. This is because they lack grounding, have deteriorated insulation, and cannot handle modern electrical loads per the National Electrical Code. That's why it's so crucial to ensure you have a trusted Asheville electrician on hand for whole home rewiring.

Hendersonville, NC residents can learn more about our comprehensive rewiring process below.

  • Assessment: The process for your whole home rewiring in Hendersonville, NC begins with a thorough inspection of your attic, basement, walls, and panels. This will help us determine the extent of your knob and tube wiring and note hazards, such as splices or overloads.
  • Wiring removal: Next, it's time for removal. After your main power is shut down, we will disconnect your current wiring from the panel, then cut or pull wiring from the affected areas.
  • Installation: For installation, a new NM-B or MC cable is run from upgraded panels (if needed) through crawlspaces and attics into outlets. We will additionally add circuits, grounds, AFCIs, and GFCIs to your system.
  • Final testing: After the walls have been patched, your system is energized, and we will perform thorough testing for faults and loads.
