1/0 Welding Wire Vs 1/0 Alumnium Wire

Some say welding cable is not as good as CCA wire for car audio
and some people get their penis stuck in the jacuzzi do you want to do the same? copper is a better conductor ask any electrician the aluminum is just lots cheaper. I do want to see how much better tinned copper holds up to corrosion. I have heard it does but want to see some good proof in a side by side.

Copper has a higher ampacity rating. When using aluminum conductors, the standard is to go to the next recommended size for the application. That is per the NEC(National Electrical Code).
