Re: Aluminum wiring to branch circuits
Dan,

To the best of my memory, the switches and receptacles stamped with "CO/ALR" are supposed to be effective when used with solid strand aluminum. However, I did see some of those go bad several years ago. Take a look at the info posted by Richard and they mention the same thing. As a result, I do what Carl suggested and defer to an electrical contractor.
