That would be "hydraulic"... I've notice this pretty consistently and it grates on my eyes... :) For ordinary household wiring don't think you'll find anything that would be practical.

] [ 155688 ] [ alt.building.construction ] [ view full article ] "Harry Muscle" - Powered crimping tool equivalent to COPALUM tool - Thanks to everyone who's responded to my last question about aluminum wiring. I thought I'd investigate the option of using a hydrolic pressing or crimping tool to add copper pigtails onto the aluminum wires. Apparently that's how aluminum wire connections are made by the utility companies. I know there's a tool available and certified for residental wiring, called COPALUM, unfort... |

Then find that there is considerable disagreement over whether Al "done properly" represents enough _more_ of a risk over copper to be concerned about. So you're not going to find exactly what you want in terms of "proo... |

Only one room was sheetrocked, so I left that part of the wiring in. The rest I removed and trashed. A few years later, the overhead light stopped working in that room. It was necessary to cut through the drywall and rip out ALL of the aluminum wiring. The connections were corroded and probably very uns... |

I know in my area, the wiring won't make much difference with the market we have right now ... even knob and tube wired houses sell. I'm willing to accept the fact that whatever money I spend on the wiring will never be recovered. I want to fix things for safety sake mainly. Thanks, Harry . ... |
