Rewiring New Electrical in an Old House
What happens here
Following the drilled pathways, new 12/2 and 14/2 electrical wires are pulled and routed through the walls. The wires are pulled from the subpanel location to each new outlet box and switch box. Careful attention is paid to secure the wires with staples every few feet, preventing them from being damaged or dislodged during subsequent construction phases. This includes the kitchen circuits for general receptacles, dishwasher, and garbage disposal. The process of fishing wires through walls, especially around corners, is highlighted as potentially challenging.
