Aluminum wiring fire risk and repair costs
Consumer Reports advises inspecting for warm cover plates, smoke, sparks, arcing, odors, flickering lights, or dead outlets in homes with aluminum wiring. If signs appear, electricians can crimp copper to aluminum using a tool, fixing all switches outlets lighting fixtures and junction boxes in a three bedroom house for about 600 to 700 dollars, versus rewiring over 1000 dollars.
