Knob and Tube Electrical

Knob and Tube Electrical Systems
Macomb, Oakland & Wayne County

Many older homes located in Wayne, Macomb & Oakland County still have knob and tube wiring for their electrical system – which uses ceramic knobs to hold the electrical wire away from building materials. Due to an increased risk of fire, most states no longer allow new installation of residential knob and tube electrical wiring systems. And, even knob and tube installations that are still up to code often no longer hold up, due to the increased electrical demands of modern appliances and electronic devices.Save
