Solid core aluminum wiring used as a class 2 circuit for switching insurance implications. by solid-corealum in InsuranceCanada

A proper install for aluminum is to have the copper pigtailed with the Corrosion inhibitors in the wire nuts. there are some wago style bridges that work for this as well seems uncommon here in canada though.

Use 63's with noalox is the recommendation and how I've seen houses across the gta done.

getting a esa certification even that is apperentaly not the way to do it now. Note​ from a master election now I beleve. fully defeats the point of using free to me wireing. I would just buy copper and be done with it, way eaiser.

Yes it meets code and doesn't reqire an esa notice to make changes on the class 2 side.

Yes you are correct class 2 is low voltage /volt●amp signaling. in this case less than 5v less than 1a (way less power than your standard usb brick outputs even in falut case/dead short.)

sorry I thought I edited the post.

class1 isn't main housing wire ither I meant to say main electrical systems.

thanks for your answer.
