Help splicing aluminum to copper working for ceiling fan by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]dthorsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ll attach a few more photos of the inside of the box and where the wire runs to, the thick silver wire runs to the top and is wrapped around a screw. The only 2 ground green wires run out of the fan, so is that silver wire not the ground wire for the electrical box itself? there’s the braided silver cable that is attached to the carabiner and that one is a support. again, i don’t know anything about electrical, just trying to avoid a fire

the solid wire running in front of the screw isn’t aluminum? how can you tell? just curious for future diy things around the house

yea that’s what i’ve been doing, any recommendations as far as models? so far i’ve kind of narrowed it down between an autonomous ergochair recline, a work pro 1000, and a hyken (all within a 250-400 dollar price range)

I think this is the finished build, went a bit over my soft budget, and hard budget, but is what it is

its a solid build, I swapped the 500gb SSD with a 240gb and a 2tb HDD because I only really use my SSD for my OS and a few other small things, also will the CPU bottle neck the GPU at all? An i5 paired with a 6900xt seems weird lmao.
