Why is aluminum wiring dangerous?

Connection points

As old aluminum wiring expands, contracts, and corrodes over time, it can lead to loose connections and heat buildup at connection points and in fixtures.

Costly issues

Homes that still have aluminum wiring are as much as 55 times more likely to have electrical issues that could lead to an expensive, devastating house fire.

Building codes

These days, the electrical standards for home wiring set by the NFPA, the NEC, and national building codes often require aluminum wiring to be replaced.
