I encountered a type of cable today I haven't seen before -- armored cable with what appear to be Al conductors (not the bonding wire, the actual insulated conductors). The conductors are silver in color and do seem to bend like Al, not like old Cu. The wiring in question probably dates from the mid 1960s so Al doesn't seem too unlikely.
I'm sure others here have seen this before. How uncommon is it? I can't seem to even find a picture of it or reference to it anywhere.
