"Aluminum wiring , if it was installed properly, is fine"
In most homes, there has been changes made to these fine wiring jobs, and there in is the problem.
Most if not all of these installations, were done by tract contractors, at this same time custom homes, were still being wired with copper wire, the actual cost savings were just a few dollars, however on tract homes this cost savings for material could add up to a considerable amount, from the begining days of installation, there were warnings that alum wiring in homes would become a problem.
