Well said guys. I spent almost 50 years in the electrical trade, the last 28 as an inspector. To me the two biggest issues with knob and tube wiring are cold soldered joints, and 30 amp fuses, especially if they exist in the same circuit, that was designed for 15 amp protection.
But I have been retired for 1 year, 11 and 1/2 months now and this is the best job I have had yet.
