hausdok Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Not the way it's done. You can use a special alloy clamp that's approved for aluminum or copper and won't react to either and then clamp the aluminum into the clamp but what they've done there is just......lame.

Jim Katen Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I believe this is wrong; however, I can not find a reference for it. Can Copper and aluminum be mixed like this? No. The conductor is supposed to run through the hole meant for it and be secured by the lug. It isn't supposed to be squished between the clamp and the copper tube. The installer was lazy. - Jim Katen, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
