Replacing Knob and Tube Wiring..
I have a house which has knob and tube wiring that is not working, so I am in the process of replacing it. Plan is to run Romex 12-2 down the walls to the outlets, and up to the attic, with each room having its own circuit (small house 2 bed 1 bath)
I plan to have 1 circuit per bedroom, 1 for the living room, and 2 for the kitchen/bath (1 outlet in bathroom) Does this seem logical? I have had the main panel upgraded, to a 200 amp service breaker box, and plan to run all the wires myself and have an electrician tie them into the box. Each bedroom has 3 outlets. Does this seem logical? am I thinking this out correctly? 5 Junction boxes in the attic, all feed by a 20amp breaker.. then I will put the dryer, stove and water heater and heater all on there own breakers.. no central air
anyone see any problems with this setup!? Im starting to run the wires and need to have it mapped out!
thanks!
