I have an older home with some knob and tube upstairs, downstairs has been rewired new. I want to disconnect upstairs knob and tube. Can an electrician , junction my electric baseboard wire (all upstairs rooms have baseboard heaters to install new bedroom lights and plugs.?
I am on breakers.
I do not use the electric baseboard for heating . Just don't want all the holes and mess
There must be a way as electric baseboard wiring is already there.

Thanking you all in advance:)20210610_131409.jpg20210610_131318.jpg20210610_131210.jpgIMG_20210610_133509_HDR.jpg

If I was you I would get rid of the knob and tubing wire and use the spares that you have in your panels but whoever installed the panel with all the junction boxes I don’t think I would need their service. That’s plum ugly with code violations
