Edwardian home electrical wiring was scary stuff

I’m surprised to hear that. After some bad experiences in the 1970s contractors in Ontario, and probably all of Canada, dropped the use of aluminum completely, although the big box stores still stock switches and outlets suitable for aluminum.

Yah, nobody likes Al wiring, but the cost of copper has suddenly made a lot of people more okay with it.
