Rewire, Panel, and Inspections

5 photos · electrical

Whole house got rewired from the panel out. The old service was undersized and the branch circuits were a mix of knob-and-tube, ungrounded romex, and aluminum patches. New 200-amp panel went in, every circuit was pulled and replaced, and we worked off the permit room by room. My son helped on outlets and low-voltage runs once the rough-in passed. Stickers in the windows tell the story.
