Thats the biggest problem. Electrical codes vary from place to place so thats why you should leave the work to a certified electrition and never close up the walls before it has been inspected.
Aluminum is a big problem in residential as far as working on it. The proper rated aluminum plugs and switches are getting hard to find and the only other option is to do what I mentioned above. Its a bit of fear mongering with regards to the safe use of aluminum as if the connections are good they is little to worry about. Its when they become loose that its a big fire risk. Most problems happen at the panel or at plugins where there is a high draw device like a Heater, stove or dryer.
