Discuss 70s house, aluminium conductors in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
I've never known aluminium cables that small, even the lighting cables all seem to have a much larger CSA than the copper equivalent. Best to rewire if you can, all the stuff I've come across has been very brittle, and broke off with very little amounts of bending.
When you think about it, that wiring is almost 50 years old, it would not be unreasonable to suggest a rewire.
Totally, if the reading are good, then why replace it,
