That pic of the receptical scares me. Aluminum wire that stuff is scary. FYI becarefull mixing disssimaliare metals ie. The copper and alum. There are special marets and dielectric grease to do it properly. And don't nick the aluminum wire a little nick and the curent will start to arc and the nick will get bigger and create heat. I had aluminum wire in my last house.
