Question:
Good Morning,
Do I need a special receptacle for aluminum wire in my home?
Kenneth Weixlmann
A
Answer:
Hello Kenneth,
Not sure if you need a special receptacle but the devices terminated to aluminum conductors need to be suitable for that application. If devices are suitable for connecting aluminum conductors they are often marked Copper, Aluminum, or CO/AL. See Section 110.14(A) in the NEC.
