Massachusetts is well-known for its charming, historic homes. However, these older residential properties often come with aged electrical systems like knob and tube wiring. This method of electrical wiring was popular from the 1880s through the 1930s, but it doesn’t match up to the safety and efficiency standards of today’s electrical systems. Knob and tube wiring doesn’t have surge protection, can increase the risk of shock and fire, and often fails to support the energy demands of modern appliances and electronics.

Our experienced electrical contractors have extensive experience replacing knob and tube wiring with safer, modern systems that meet current codes and can handle today’s electrical needs. By upgrading, you’ll not only increase the safety of your home but also its overall efficiency and value.

Electrical tasks may seem simple, but even routine jobs like mounting light fixtures can pose risks if not done correctly. Instead of investing your valuable time in figuring out the complexities of electrical installations, let the skilled electricians at Kuhlman Electric handle it for you. We assure you that every electrical project, regardless of its size, is executed flawlessly and safely.

Our electrical panels need to cater to everything from smartphones to high-powered kitchen appliances, each demanding a piece of our electrical system’s capacity. Unfortunately, the once standard 100 amp circuit breaker may no longer cut it when it comes to efficiently power today’s modern appliances and devices.

BX wiring was the second generation of home wiring after knob and tube, and was phased out in the 1940s. Some issues with BX wiring include the inability to connect modern wire to it, making it difficult to install new fixtures. Also, the fact that it is ungrounded can be a safety hazard. Kuhlman Electric has a skilled team of electricians that can replace any BX wiring in your home.
