Much of Hudson County was built before 1960: colonials, capes, two-family houses and brick apartment buildings with plaster walls. For an electrician that usually means 60 or 100 amp service, a mix of old cloth-covered cable and newer wire, and panels that were never meant to carry central air, an induction range and a car charger at the same time.
