If you are asking can you connect aluminum wiring to copper wiring, the answer is yes. With one provision. You must cover the connection with a special compound prior to putting on the wire nuts. This compound is available at Lowe's and Home Depot and Ace.

What size wire do you need for AC?

Depends entirely on current draw. The higher the current, the higher the draw. For example, the wires in a radio may be pretty small, while the wire to operate your stove is pretty large. The wires to operate an overhead electric locomotive or trolley may be 8 to 12 inches across. In house wiring, the standard in most places is 14 guage for the lighting circuits, 12 guage for the convenience outlets, and bigger guages for the clothes dryer and stove.


Why is copper not often used for pans?

Copper has a good conductivity rate and dissipates heat rapidly and evenly across it's surface.Copper is used because it is a good conductor of heat. Copper will react to certain food acids such as tomato sauce, so pans are usually made from stainless steel that is clad, or covered on the surface that sits on the heating source... the stove. Copper also reacts to eggs.. try to whip egg whites in a copper bowl and you will spend a good amount of time doing it. This is because the copper reacts with the egg and breaks down the surface tension making it difficult to form "peaks".
