I'm not an expert, but I am paranoid. I'm just finishing up the process of replacing all of the 1950's era wiring in my old house. A lot of my wires looked surprisingly similar to your picture. It scared me, so I replaced it.

That said, my house is not that big, and the job was huge. So don't undertake this lightly. A single light could consume several weekends, all by itself. Trust me. Oh, and the wires never go where you think they will, (crazed laugh).

But I sleep better at night, for what that's worth.


Good luck. Post pictures of your progress, I'm sure that others (like me) will be happy to help if we can.
