People  question using aluminum wire - even though this is copper  coated


Piper use to use aluminum wire in the Cherokee line back when.  The  battery 
was located under the back seat.  While aluminum is a great  conductor, the 
outside of the wire would "corrode" and a film would develop on  the outside of 
the wire over time.  This film however was a great  isolator.  The problem was 
the corrosion film would also form under  the crimped copper connectors on 
each end of the wire and lower current  transfer.  There was a AD to replace 
these wires in the Pipers.  The  coated aluminum should prevent this.
