I would use brass only. Dissimilar metals will react to each other and corrode. Especially when electric current is passed between them.
You might want to contact Blue Seas Systems and tell them what they have been doing for 30-years is all wrong. Brass is not brass. Electroltically speaking many grades os brass hate each other. Working on commercial vessels I had to play it safe and use silicon bronze where 18-8 or 316 stainless was deemed inappropriate. Brasses that hate each other are a disaster. The electrolytic action with dissimilar percentages of zinc are disheartening. If the thought of electrolysis keeps a person awake at night a dab of neverseize otter calm jittery nerves. But stainless and copper and CU alloys works just ducky.
