Our home was built in 1874.  I suspect it was wired well before the 1930/40's era push for rural electrification, as a nearby dam supplied power to the community as early as 1904.  


The house was rewired when we purchased it, but I still had lingering doubts as a small portion of the wiring was inaccessible.  


Recently I purchased an Extech CT70 outlet tester and have been testing every circuit, including the overhead lights.  It shows many parameters, including branch voltage drop load tests, and, Z for every conductor.  


I highly recommend it.  Shop aggressively, as I found the price to vary by a factor of two between vendors.
