Overview

I purchased a 1967 manufactured home in October, 2025.

I’m looking for help addressing issues with the electrical systems that were called out during the inspection.

Panel

Some of the 120-volt distribution wiring visible in the service panel is copper, and some is aluminum.  I understand the present usual recommendation for dealing with aluminum wiring is to replace all wire nuts in the system with special spring-loaded units, to replace all switches and outlets with units marked "CO/ALR", and to coat all connections with corrosion inhibitor.

I’m comfortable doing the outlets and switches beyond the panel, but I’d like help for work needed inside the panel.

Range Circuit

One of the 4 wires for the circuit for the cooking range has been clipped at the egress.  I’d like help determining if the existing wiring can be salvaged, and if it can’t be, to run new wire from the panel to the range.  The straight line distance between the panel and the egress for the range is ~18’.  The run across the exterior wall is ~16’.

Garage Subpanel

The subpanel in the garage is old and should be replaced.  I haven’t taken a picture of it yet.  It’s got old edison style fuses.

General Integrity

I’d like to get more of an idea of the overall safety and integrity of the electrical system.  I know aluminum wiring carries an inherent risk, and if replacing all of it is feasible, I’d like to get an idea of what that would entail.
