splicing aluminum to copper elec wire
I just bought a new oven and it came with aluminum wire and I have to splice it to copper. Do I need to do something different for this connection? I know aluminum and copper doesn't play well toge...

The two conductors can not touch each other. And tin plating is just that. Plating, not cladding. One scraping or heavy-duty wire brushing and it's back to bare aluminum. Confirm this yourself by trying to solder what you believe to be tin coating.
I watched a 27 KV corona eat a junction, clamp and three feet of transmission conductor. It is humbling even though I had nothing to do with it.
I had a good HP thermographic 4" imager then it died and HP told me there were no fixes. I sure miss it :(
