What St. Johnsbury, VT Homeowners Should Know

St. Johnsbury has some of Vermont's finest Victorian-era homes along Eastern Avenue and Summer Street. These homes are beautiful but their original electrical systems are long past their useful life. Knob-and-tube wiring is common in homes built before 1940. The wire itself may still be intact, but the insulation becomes brittle over decades and it lacks the ground wire that modern safety requires.

Insurance companies are well aware of knob-and-tube wiring and many now refuse to renew policies on homes that still have it, or charge much higher premiums. If your insurer has raised questions about your wiring, that's a clear signal it's time to get an electrician to look at a full rewire.

The Northeast Kingdom gets some of the worst winter storms in New England. Multi-day power outages are not rare. A properly installed standby generator with an automatic transfer switch is one of the most practical investments you can make for a home in St. Johnsbury.

Homes built between 1965 and 1973 in the area may have aluminum branch circuit wiring. This isn't the same issue as knob-and-tube, but it does require specific outlets and connections. An inspection will tell you what you have.
