What Are The Main Issues with Aluminum Wiring?
There are 3 main issues with aluminum wiring. The first is the softness of the material. This makes it extremely easy to damage during installation, re-routing, or simply moving. Second, is loose connections and overheating at the terminal screws due to expansion and contraction of the aluminum wiring while in use. And, third, is that aluminum oxidizes which inhibits its ability to conduct electrical flow. All of these problems create both an inefficient and dangerous environment in your home.
How Easy Is It To Replace Aluminum Wiring?
In the early days of electrical work, re-wiring a home generally meant tearing out walls and invasive methods to your floors and ceiling in order to get the job done. This left you with a huge mess.
