Installing a Tesla wall connector in garage. The home builder had prewire the garage with Aluminum wires coming from a 50A breaker into a box
I want to pigtail #6 copper wire to existing Aluminum wires using Polaris IT4 multi tap. The Al wires are now terminated with a wire twist and all have noalox on them. My questions are
1) Do I cut and strip the wire (no noalox) before putting in the Polaris tap, as it indicates it has anti oxide compound in it (doesn’t seem much) or do I add noalox? Can noalox be mixed with the anti oxide gel inside the Polaris tap?
2) If I need to add noalox to the Aluminum wires do I also add noalox to the bare Aluminum ground wire?
