Question:

Was reading one of your responses regarding aluminum wire. You wrote that you cant connect aluminum to copper. I was under the impression that you could not connect aluminum to brass. I have installed copper pigtails and anti-oxidant to my switches and outlets.



Answer:

So did I. I know that copper and aluminum chemically re-act and that that is not good.
