In the open or exposed wiring method, the wires are visible and
are supported by the knobs. These knobs may be a split or solid type.
This is shown in figure 1.
Split knobs are used to support wires smaller than No. 8. Solid
knobs are used to support or anchor wires as big as No. 8 or even
bigger. Screws or nails may be used to fasten the knobs. When a nail
is used a leather washer should be placed between the nail head and
the insulator to form cushion and protect the insulator from breaking.
See figure 2.
