Understanding old home electrical systems

Old houses usually contain older electrical systems that were not originally intended to accommodate today's appliances and power demands. Two of the most prevalent obsolete wiring systems are:

Knob-and-Tube Wiring is a method of wiring that employs ceramic knobs and tubes to insulate the wires. Though it was once a hit, currently, it is rated as a fire risk due to the following:

• Absence of grounding, hence resulting in higher shock risks.
• The wear of insulation exposes bare wires.
• It overheats when applied to the wire with new electric loads.

Aluminum Wiring

Homes built between the 1960s and the 1970s may be wired with aluminum wiring, something to worry about because:

• Wiring that rusts in time, loose connections.
• Higher risk of overheating and fires.
• Loose connections that lead to power fluctuations.

If your home is wired with one of these systems, maybe the time is right to have a professional upgrade.
